Default WNDR4500 how do u block multiply sites

I have a WNDR4500, and a list of about 100,000 sites I like to block from my kids. How do I import all these sites at once into the router settings so all these sites can be blocked?

The sites are in a text file, listed.

I should not have to manually input all of these site. HOW can I import???

Chad

Have you looked at the 'Parental Controls' section instead?

Otherwise you will have to load each individual site one at a time since the config files are now encrypted.

Remember that such a list could cause yourself lots of issues as well.

yes, I did look at the parental controls.

So there is absolutely no way to import the list?
Manually inputting each one can take months?

The alternative option would be to investigate a firmware such as DD-WRT. That may allow you to put in the list of sites.

To be perfectly honest though, I do not think that ANY commercial router aimed at the home market will do what you are asking. The memory inside the router is not infinite and I suspect that you will run out of room long before you get to 10% of the list.

Whoever gave you that list was having a laugh at your expense if the intention was for you to put the list on your router. However it is possible to put such a list into Windows. Take a look at the Internet Options and look at putting the site in the list of blocked sites there.
