How to block websites on Archer C2300?

2022-02-14 18:43:31

Model: Archer C2300

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.1.1

Hi,

we have the Archer C2300 as the WiFi router (connected to a Sky modem via ethernet cable).

I would like to block access to TikTok via the router, so that it can't be accessed by the laptops in the house and by the mobile phones.

However, all tutorials I find for tp-link routers are, "Go to Access Control > Host > etc" However. on the C2300 Access Control is under the sub-heading of "Security" and there is no "Host" option?

Kind Regards,
Andre

@Andrexs

can you not block this via the ISP websafe controls?

BT Full fibre 500, 1x X60 V3.2 in router mode and 1 x XE75Pro V2.

@klipse Thanks, good idea, haven't thought about this. I did set this now up in Sky Broadband Shield, but so far it's not working. Maybe takes a little bit until the settings take effect?

But would that also work if TikTok is accessed via the iOS App?

Kind Regards,
Andre

@Andrexs

On C2300 the only option for restricting access to a particular website is the Parental Controls.

If you're aiming at TikTok it's probably worth to check these findings.
