Re: content filtering at home

I've had good luck with pfSense and the Squid plug-in.  You can filter URL's, IP's, Services, setup access times, 
monitor bandwidth, etc.

Subject: [SECURITY] content filtering at home

Does anyone have any advice regarding doing content filtering at home?  
I have a 2-wire home router, and all the ISP offers is their parental 
controls that run individually on each computer.  The problem is that we 
have other devices for which this won't work (i-pod, xbox, wii).  One 
suggestion is OpenDNS, but it's not clear to me how that would work for 
these other devices.  Does anyone have suggestions?
