How to Block Adult Content on a Linksys Router
Make any Linksys router family-safe in 5 minutes — covers every device on your network with nothing to install.
You'll need two things:
- 1 · A VeeShield account ($6.99/mo, unlimited devices, cancel anytime)
- 2 · Access to your router's admin panel at myrouter.local
Open the Linksys admin panel
Go to myrouter.local (or 192.168.1.1) in a browser and sign in. Velop mesh owners can use the Linksys app: Menu → Advanced Settings → Internet Settings.
Open Connectivity settings
Click Connectivity in the left menu, then the Local Network tab (on some firmware: Internet Settings → IPv4).
Enter the VeeShield resolvers
Set Static DNS 1 to 185.236.104.104 and Static DNS 2 to 185.236.105.105.
Save
Click Ok/Apply. Reconnect your devices to pick up the new setting.

Common questions
Will this slow down my internet?
No. VeeShield runs on a global anycast DNS network ranked the fastest filter in the world by DNSPerf — most homes actually see pages start loading faster, because ads and trackers get blocked before they download.
Does this cover phones and tablets too?
Yes — everything connected to your Wi-Fi is covered automatically: phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and game consoles. Nothing to install on each device.
Can my kids just undo it?
The setting lives in your router's admin panel, which is protected by your router password. VeeShield also blocks the VPN and proxy sites commonly used to sneak around filters. For extra security, change your router admin password while you're in there.
What if a site gets blocked that shouldn't be?
Open your VeeShield dashboard and allow it with one click — the change takes effect in seconds.
