" I believe it's the Family Shield. The DNS servers are the same, it's just that Family Shield is preconfigured to block some categories. You sign up for account and then you get access to a Dashboard via the website that shows usage, blocked attempts, etc. I made the decision to just install it on my son's PC, but with wi-fi everything today - tablets, phones, game systems - it's probably better to configure the router; but then every machine on the network is subject to the same level of filtering. If you decide to just install at the PC level, you'll have to download their OpenDNS Updater if you're using a dynamic IP from the ISP.
