    No temporary override function for parental controls on router?

    Some routers have parental controls, but none seem to have a temporary override function for a particular website (why can't they implement this function?), but they have an "always override" list.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    Probably because they have little memory, it would involve extra processing and because in order to do the "temporary" part they would have to add an accurate time source inside with backup power (if you want the site to be allowed for an hour, the router would have to keep time even if there are power failures and so on)

    I guess you could do it with some custom firmware..

      Netgear has good built in parental controls (powered by OpenDNS) but to bypass it you have to have a certain piece of software installed on the compiter...

        Excuse me while i do something dangerous


        You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

        Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

          Why does my ISP router hate my "homemade" power supply??
          by double_DD
          Hi all,

          It's gonna be a long intro, so please buckle in, as it's a problem that's been bugging me for several days now. Thanks in advance.

          So, I have 2 modems/routers, whatever the proper nomenclature is, one from ISP and one mine. I want to power them via USB-C rather then their original mains adapters (for reasons, that are hard to explain to sane people). Both routers come with 12V/3A mains adapters.
          For this purpose I acquired USB-C charger with 250W and 5 ports, 2 of which can supply max 20V/3A. Since 12V isn't a standard PD voltage option (and to future proof,...

          Help identifying the function of these two coils - MSI Delta 15 (MS-15CK1)
          by Salvador Pérez
          Hello everyone, I'm troubleshooting an MSI Delta 15 (MS-15CK1) motherboard, and I need help identifying the function of the two coils marked in the attached image. The laptop powers on and responds to the keyboard, but the screen does not turn on-neither the LCD nor the backlight. I've checked the main power rails, and all other coils seem to have the expected voltages:

          • 0.91V for the GPU
          • 1.7V for VRAM
          • 3.3V and 5V rails 1.8V for the BIOS
          • 0.9V for the CPU and iGPU 1.2V for the RAM

          However, these two coils are not showing any voltage....

          UPNP, "Standards" and hardware that implements it
          by EasyGoing1
          I've been writing a program in Java that is really just a robust front end for the use of GitHiub Gists, providing a nice interface for developers to organize, maintain and access code snippets that we tend to need from time to time in our different projects.

          One of the features of the program is the ability for people to share their Gists with others who use the program over a LAN or over the Internet. The program just basically serializes a Java class and encrypts it then wraps it into a UDP datastream and sends it over to another user.

          So I decided to implement UPNP...
