For parents

Test your home network, then fix what fails

This path is built for home users who want a quick answer: is the network actually blocking unsafe content, and what should I do next if it is not?

Run Home Network Test See remediation options

1. Run the test

Use the browser-based checks to see whether protection appears to be active on your current network.

2. Review the result

NetHound highlights what looks protected and what needs review.

3. Fix the weak spots

Move from free DNS changes to stronger hardware and continuous validation as needed.

Parent workflow

Start simple, then add stronger protection

Start free

Change router DNS settings and apply the simplest home controls first.

Lock down phones

Reduce bypass options on kids’ phones and understand what household controls matter most.

Validate continuously

Add the NetHound probe if you want deeper or repeatable validation over time.
