Hi, I have DNS loaded on 3 phone / tablet devices. I used to have blocked access to any adult / pornography domains. But took the block off over a month ago. On all but one mobile device still cannot access any of these blocked sites. Why is this? I have used the same setting on all devices on the wifi settings when setting up the DNS on mobile devices. But do not understand why on this one mobile no access to porn works?

Any ideas why this could be please?

I have stopped 'safe browsing' domain, could this have anything to do with it? Possibly that one device is using safe browsing?

Please advice what I can try?

 

Thank you

    What OpenDNS resolver addresses do you have configured on this device? Do they end with .123?

    Safe Browsing is something different and has nothing to do with adult content.

    Hi

    Thank you for your reply.  I set up the device ( same for all devices) as per DNS instructions using DNS 1 208.67.222.222 and

    DNS 2 208.67.220.220

     

    Sorry not sure what a resolver address is?  Where can this be found?  

     

    Thank you

    You listed the resolver addresses and answered my question. Where did you configure these addresses?

    Visit www.exampleadultsite.com with this mobile device, expand the diagnostic if the option exists, and post a screen shot of this page.

    Hi

    I configured these DNS address in the wifi settings on each device. I used the same configuration on all devices, but only with one device now switching the block off the adult sites / on one device still adult sites won't show / are blocked.  

    I've used the web site you put on the device but cannot see a section on 'diagnostic'.  I just get the page stating this is only a demonstration site and if you were using filtering this demo and real adult sites would be blocked.

    Not sure why it worked in blocking adult sites on all devices at first but now trying to unblock, it unblocks on all devices apart from one mobile samsung device.  When I have used all the same configurations in the wifi settings to set up DNS in the first place.

    Any other ideas?

    Thank you

    "I just get the page stating this is only a demonstration site and if you were using filtering this demo and real adult sites would be blocked."

    This is the indication that OpenDNS does not block adult sites on this device.  This blocking of adult sites is apparently not by OpenDNS, but by anything else.  Else www.exampleadultsite.com would be blocked.  Even more, you may not use OpenDNS at all anymore.  Check it at http://welcome.opendns.com/
