Blocking Services

The CG814M Gateway allows you to block access to specific traffic such as proxies, cookies, Java Applets, ActiveX and popup windows.

To enable filtering of services, from the Content Filtering section of the Main Menu, select Services. Check the Enable box for whichever service you would like to block and click Apply.

Proxy

The proxy filter will prevent PCs from using a proxy server to surf the web. A proxy server could be used to bypass parental control features because the port number for a proxy is usually 8080.
