List-Based Web Blocking - Light and Full

Product Discussion Feature Requests

Good Morning

The new list based blocking is pretty cool but the light version is VERY light!

There are only 6 categories compared to 44 in the full version

Is there a plan to add more options to the light list?

Hi,

Web Blocking will utilize some system resources. So full Web Blocking categories only available in the high-end model.

Hi TK
I had a feeling it was going to be something like that.
Is there a plan to increase the number of categories in the light version? Even if it was around 15-20 rather then the current 6, it would be a lot more help full.
Maybe an option to enable more categories but a warning displayed that more system resources will be utilised by this feature?
Thank You

Hi GNO,

We shall review this in future. 6 Web Blocking categories are the optimum design for the low-end model. Thanks for your suggestion.

Hi TK
I would assume that devices like the HD4 would have enough system resources to support a Medium list?
Understand that devices like the BR1 and HD2 don’t have as much system resources and could lead to worse performance if not implemented correctly.
Thank You.

Hi,

Good suggestion! Do you think how many and which Web Blocking categories should be included in Medium list?

Hi TK
I’ll make a list and send it to you.
Thank You
