Is there anyway to get around a router block? - JaredG - 11-09-2012 06:43 PM
My brother has Facebook,and a bunch of games banned just to be a jerk and my mom hates it. I was wondering if there was a way to get around a router password because I don't know the password and this banned thing is getting annoying... it feels like I'm at school! So someone who's like.. really good in computer stuff, can you help me?

unplug the power, hold the reset button and plug it back in.
It will reset to factory.
Next login and change the master password for the router and now you can block his stuff.

1)
you can use proxy sites to bypass them, some sites are:
proxify.com (5,295)
thefreeproxy.us (4,629)
proxeasy.com (4,582)
unblockall.net (4,407)
secure-tunnel.com (4,243)
othersky.com (4,122)
beyondblocks.com (4,085)
2)
you could make use of Tor ( http://vidalia-project.net/) to tunnel your traffic through the network...
if you download the vidalia bundle, everything you need is included (Tor & privoxy)
read more on http://tor.eff.org
or watch this instructional video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAqDP0WEps8&feature=related&fmt=18
mozilla has an add on specially for tor, but you can always use your preffered browser
3)
change the url from http to https

Yes you could change it, but a person knowledgeable can change it right back. You see routers have a reset that allows them to be set to factory default which most of the time isn't sufficient. The parameters have to be setup for your specific network. What could you possibly do to keep him from a reset and doing what he wants. Unless you put the router in a steel lock box. Then you wouldn't have wifi and you would burn it up.

yes you can use proxy sites or vpn software.
