Parental countrols on router

Hi, I'm trying to put parental controls on my WiFi box for my children, however haven't been able to find anything online that dumbs it down enough 🤣. I'd like to be able to limit the times they have access and what they have access to. They're 11 and 13, and who knows what they can access. I know I don't 🫣

You can set restrictions on content by logging onto the MySky app & setting an appropriate level in Broadband Shield.

 

Time limits are only available with the Sky Max extra subscription at £4 pm, but I've no idea if it's any good.

@Jess139 take a look at the parental controls Skyoffer as part of ghe WiFi Max add-on bundle (https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max-parental-controls) which allows parents to control kids devices access. Sky's Broadband Shield does sct as a web filter see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max-parental-controls and comes as part of the basic subscription.

 

Neither is perfect but the parental filter that is 100% effective simply doesnt exist they all have pros and cons and a determined kid can get round most nearly all of them
