AC1600 Smart WiFi Router Model R6260 The router lists many default services and applications that you can use in outbound rules. You can also add an outbound firewall rule for a custom service or application. For information about blocking specific keywords, URLs, or sites, see Use Keywords to Block Internet Sites on page 78. This type of blocking is another aspect of the outbound firewall. Note: Service blocking means the same thing as applying outbound firewall rules. Add an Outbound Firewall Rule You can add an outbound firewall rule to prevent access to a specific service or application on the Internet. To add an outbound firewall rule: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the router network. 2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net. A login window opens. 3. Enter the router user name and password. The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive. The BASIC Home page displays. 4. Select ADVANCED > Security > Block Services. The Block Services page displays. 5. In the Services Blocking section, specify how the router applies outbound rules: • Per Schedule. Use keyword blocking according to a schedule that you set. For more information, see Set Up a Schedule for Keyword Blocking and Outbound Firewall Rules on page 86. • Always. Use keyword blocking continuously. 6. Below the Service Table, click the Add button. The Block Services Setup page displays. 7. From the Service Type menu, select service or application to be covered by this rule. If the service or application does not display in the list, you can add it (see Add an Outbound Firewall Rule for a Custom Service or Application on page 83).
