Internet Usage monitoring software

Hi,

Kindly let me know if Verizon provides free software to monitor and restrict internet usage.

Thanks in advance.

Instead of using software to do that, you could..

#1 Get an account at OpenDNS.

#2 Setup your router to use OpenDNS as the DNS Server.

#3 Monitor and restrict Internet using OpenDNS.

I 2nd the recommendation for OpenDNS. It's a great way to control internet access.

Oh, and Verizon does not offer any software for managing and restricting internet access. The routers do have parental controls, but they really only useful for turning access on and off according to a schedule. If you want to prevent access to certain classes of internet sites, the router won't do that. OpenDNS does it easily and for free.

Good Luck.
