How to setup KiboshDNS

 

Preface: DNS is the phonebook for the internet and every router in the world requires DNS to work.

Most WiFi routers allow you to change these DNS numbers, BUT if your ISP equipment does not allow the changing of DNS – you can purchase your own router and either attach it to, or replace your ISP router. 

KiboshDNS Servers – 

  1. 209.124.51.246
  2. 209.124.51.245

Filtering will only work with an active Kibosh Account – (sign up for a 14 day trial).

Troubleshooting.

 

Phase 1: How to enable KiboshDNS on your WiFi router:

  1. First you’ll need to find IP address of the WiFi router you’re using now, and type this IP into your browser, which will open the Admin Login page where you can change DNS.
    1. How to do this:
      • Watch this how-to video:
    2. Manual Instructions:
      1. Check underneath your router, sometimes the Router / Gateway IP address is listed there.
      2. Try the following defaults: type each one of these into your browser – if you get a login screen, that’s it:
        • 192.168.0.1
        • 192.168.1.1
        • 192.168.1.254
        • 10.0.10.1
        • 10.0.0.1
      3. If you still haven’t found your modem/router login, do a Google search for your ‘[router model] admin login’.
  2. If you’ve gotten this far then you’re logged into your WiFi Router’s Admin UI – now look around for the DNS server settings section – 
    • Look for ‘WAN / Internet Connection settings’.
    • These are usually found under advanced settings, or advanced networking, or WAN config.
    • Ask Google using “router model + change DNS
  3. How to verify Kibosh is working:
    1. Go to test.kibosh.com from any device – if you’ve properly configured KiboshDNS on your WiFi you’ll get a Success! page, otherwise you’ll get a Test-Failed! page.

Phase 2: Install browser-extension and login

  1. Log into your KiboshDNS Client Portal.
  2. Go to DNS > Agents
  3. Select ‘Download Extension for this Browser’
  4. Enter your Extension Login ID & Password

Note! KiboshDNS will not work for un-authorized sources.

Therefor, we recommend you install the KiboshDNS browser-extension on multiple PCs – especially the ones that never leave the home/office.

Phase 3: How to mange your KiboshDNS Client Portal.

  1. Log into your KiboshDNS Client Portal
  2.  

 

Troubleshooting.

KiboshDNS will always work IF you have access which is granted by installing the browser-extension and logging in.
