So, at home I set the router so it issues a static DNS rather than dynamic. Actually, at home I also set the DNS for the router to be OpenDNS’s IP. If you don’t have a static IP for your network, then you setup dynamic DNS using their service. <br>

If you go to their website they have instructions on setting up several different routers. A friend of mine told me about OpenDNS. We actually setup our Church with the same thing.<br>

For free we love using OpenDNS. It does what we want it to and works well. The price is right, too. :-)<br>

Folks,<br>
It is time for our Content Filtering renewal. I am looking into various options, since prices have gone up on our current subscription (SonicWall). What do you use? What do you like/dislike about it?<br>
<br>
Is anyone using the Barracuda Content Filter? Websense (Express)?<br>
<br>
I want to accomplish two things:<br>
</span></font><ul><li><font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">Keep things secure for our elementary school
</span></font><li><font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">Avoid having a proxy server <br>
</span></font></ul><font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt"><br>
Thanks for your thoughts!<br>
