One Setting That Protects Every Screen in the House

Every family that has handed a child a tablet knows the same evening. You install a filter, you tick some boxes, and two weeks later the app is gone, the password is guessed, or a new device shows up that nobody set up. The rules never quite stick, because they live on the device instead of in the home.

There is a quieter place to put them. Before any device shows a website, it has to ask a simple question first: where does this address actually live. Answer that question well, once, for your whole network, and you protect every screen that joins it without touching a single one of them.

What the DNS layer really is, in one plain sentence

When a phone or laptop opens a site, it first asks a lookup service for directions. That service is the DNS layer. Whoever answers can also decide which answers to give and which to quietly leave out. Point your home at the right one and the rules travel with the network, not with the app on the tablet.

One setting, every device

InfoPeak Family DNS is set at the network level, which changes the whole feel of it:

• Nothing to install. No app on the phone, no profile fighting to survive the next update.
• New devices are covered by default. A birthday tablet, a friend who joins the wifi, a smart TV in the living room. If it uses your home network, it follows the same rules.
• Nothing to remember. You set it up once and it keeps working while you get on with the day.

A profile for each child, not one blunt filter

A four year old and a fourteen year old do not need the same internet, and pretending they do is why most filters get switched off. Family DNS lets you give each child a private profile with its own rules:

• Block adult content and known malicious sites without maintaining a list yourself.
• Force safe search on the big search engines and video sites, so a curious afternoon stays gentle.
• Turn off whole categories for the younger ones and loosen them for the teenager, from one screen.

Each profile is just a single private address you paste into the device settings once. Not an app to police. A setting.

Why this beats the free resolver you were handed

Your internet provider already answers these lookups for you, and so do the large free resolvers. They are free for a reason: the questions your family asks all day are worth something to them. InfoPeak runs its own resolver in the EU, keeps no logs of what your home looks up, and shows no ads. The filter belongs to the family, not to an advertiser.

What it looks like on a normal Tuesday

It is homework hour. The oldest needs a science video on YouTube, and it plays, because the search stays clean instead of blocked outright. The youngest is on the shared tablet and simply never reaches the corners of the internet you would rather explain later. Grandparents arrive, join the wifi, and are covered without anyone setting anything up. Nobody had a fight about a password. The rules were already in the walls of the house.

Setting it up

Whole home protection is one change on your router. Per child profiles are a copy and paste into each device once. It is the kind of setup you do on a Sunday and forget about for a year.

• Families get per member profiles and shared control as part of the plan. See InfoPeak for Family.
• Prefer to compare plans first? Everything is on the pricing page.

Questions parents actually ask

Do I have to install anything on my child devices?

No. Whole home filtering is a single change on the router. A per child profile is one address you paste into the device network settings. There is no app that can be deleted.

Can my teenager just switch it off?

Because the rules live on the network rather than in an app, there is nothing on the phone to uninstall. Changing them means changing a setting you control, not tapping a button on the device.

Will it slow down our internet?

No. A lookup is tiny and happens in a fraction of a second. Filtering an answer takes the same instant as returning it. Pages load exactly as fast as before.

How is this different from the parental controls built into my router?

Router controls are usually one blunt switch for the whole house and rarely understand adult content or safe search. Family DNS gives you a real profile per child, keeps its own maintained lists current, and works the same on every device that joins.

Is my family browsing being logged?

No. The InfoPeak resolver keeps no logs of what your home looks up, runs in the EU, and carries no advertising. Protecting your children should not mean handing their habits to someone else.
