      I am looking to buy a piece of hardware that does parental control and can be easily be added to a home network. Does anyone have experience with Router Limits? Good or bad? Please let me know your thoughts.

        Looks like it's just another DNS/DHCP/Firewall tool with a front ux that's easier to manage.

          Don't use technology as a replacement for being a parent.

          ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            Not familiar with that one specifically. There are several that would seem to do similar things. I'm sure that they all work roughly the same.

            I think Disney makes one now, but I wouldn't trust a Disney device. Tech and Disney are oil and water.

              Maybe a pi-hole server with lists to block certain categories?

                Router Limits appears to just be another DNS tool, and one from Bark. Bark wasn't too impressive on 🌶 if I remember correctly.

                  Their hardware looks pretty crappy. Like 2002 era junk. And their partners aren't very impressive (or known.)

                      Pi-Hole version 5 is in beta and you can use its new group management to fine tune web filtering.

                      Create your groups

                      Add your clients to your groups

                      Add your domain as a exact whitelist, regex whitelist, exact blacklist, or regex blacklist and assign it to your group

                      You can use group assignment to assign your adlist.

                          In Pi-Hole v5, you can assign clients to multiple group assignments.

                              Yeah, that is not how that works.
