The clean router can be plugged into your existing modem or router and becomes the new router through which the Internet is accessed in your home or at any location where children could be present. The user can program the router to block pornography or inappropriate content on virtually any device, browser and operating system connected to it. It is compatible with desktops, laptops, tablets, iPods, iPhones, Androids, Windows Phones, and Blackberry devices. It is also useful with video gaming consoles, Smart TVs, Streaming Media Players, and Apple TV.
The Clean Router has the IntelliFilter Technology, which, according to the website, is their exclusive multilevel search technology, which continuously blocks unwanted content with settings the user control. It is capable of providing a safe experience for those who use it by offering an existing list of keywords and phrases, which can block content by default. The IntelliFilter features a keywords and phrases option that allows the user to control what gets blocked. This feature come with URL/Domain words, which can block websites with specific word, image name/URL words so you can block images with specific names, and user defined black/white lists, which allows the user to block or allow websites.
In a world where children are growing up too fast, it’s important for parents and other authoritative figures in their lives to have the ability to safeguard them from websites and content that is inappropriate for them to see.
