Router Setup

Router with Static IP address configuration

1. Go to SafeDNS Dashboard > Settings > Devices and copy your IP address to the "IP addresses / DynDNS" box, choose a policy, and click "Add".

2. Change your router’s DNS servers to SafeDNS addresses - 195.46.39.39 and 195.46.39.40

You have successfully configured your router.

Please note that settings take 5-7 minutes to apply.

Router with Dynamic IP address configuration

In case you have a Dynamic IP address, you need to configure the DynDNS/DDNS on the router using a Dynamic DNS service.

Most modern routers provide their own DynDNS services. We recommend using them.

Here's an example of the DynDNS menu on the TP-Link router with the TP-Link service provider:

$Screenshot_82.png$

You only need to create a DynDNS record in the router interface. Then skip to Step 6 below.

If your router does not have its own DynDNS service provider, we recommend using third-party NO-IP DynDNS.

1. In the router setting, go to DynDNS/DDNS settings,

2. Check the DynDNS service available for your router. If available, we recommend using the No IP DynDNS service provider.

3. Go to the website noip.com and sign up.

4. In your No-IP account, create a hostname (any name you can think of).

5. Go back to your router and configure DDNS/DynDNS.

Select No-IP as "Service provider".
Type in the created hostname in the "Hostname" field.
Type in your No-IP account credentials as "Username" and "Password", and click "Save".

If everything is correct, DynDNS/DDNS settings will apply.

6. Go to SafeDNS Dashboard > Settings > Devices and copy your DynDNS hostname to the "IP addresses / DynDNS" box, choose a policy, and click "Add".

Once added, you will see it in the DynDNS section of the Dashboard.

7. Change your router’s DNS servers to SafeDNS addresses - 195.46.39.39 and 195.46.39.40

You have successfully configured your router.

Please note that settings take 5-7 minutes to apply.
Stats and filtering status update every 10 minutes.

Configuring the filter using the DDclient.

In rare cases when your router does not have a DynDNS/DDNS setting and your IP is Dynamic, you need to use third-party software - DDclient - on the PC connected to the network:

1. Install DDclient on a PC connected to the network. Once DDclient is installed, all devices connected to the same network will be filtered by the same rules.

2. Set up DNS servers in your router:

Router Setup (IPv6)

Router with static IP address configuration

Go to SafeDNS Dashboard > Settings > Devices and copy your IP address to the "IP addresses / DynDNS" box, choose a policy, and click "Add".

2. Change your router’s DNS servers to SafeDNS addresses - 2001:67c:2778::3939 and 2001:67c:2778::3940

Open the router’s settings page, click the "Advanced" tab, and choose IPv6 in the left menu. Choose "IPv6 setup" and type in SafeDNS IPv6 addresses.

Keenetic Router Setup

SafeDNS service in Keenetic routers is implemented as an operating system component. You can add or remove this Internet Safety service from the system and turn it on or off completely, without affecting the parameters of the main Internet connection: SafeDNS will work behind any NAT and with a dynamic IP address.

It is not possible to run SafeDNS, Cloudflare DNS, and AdGuard DNS services at the same time. Only one of them can be used.

Before setting up the Internet safety service, register your home network devices according to the instruction Connected devices registration.

Setup

1. Select "SafeDNS" in the 'Service' field on the "Internet safety" page.

2. Enter your SafeDNS account's parameters by clicking "Log in" in the "SafeDNS account" section. If you do not have a SafeDNS account yet, click "Create account".

3. Enter your SafeDNS account e-mail/login and password.

4. Assign filtering policies in the "Assignment of protection policies to devices" section.

You can assign filtering policies to permanent home network devices (registered in Keenetic) and the default policy for all unregistered devices.

Your devices connected to the Keenetic router are now filtered with the assigned SafeDNS filtering policies.

Please note that settings take 5-7 minutes to apply.

Asuswrt-Merlin DNS Director

This part of the article contains information for Asus routers with custom firmware Asuswrt-Merlin.

Asuswrt-Merlin is a third-party alternative firmware for Asus routers (official page).
List of the supported devices - here.

DNS Director is a feature that allows you to force specific devices on your network to use specific DNS. This can be done globally, or on a per-device basis. Each of them can have a different nameserver enforced.

For example, you can have your LAN use a custom DNS server, but force your children's devices to use SafeDNS filtering.
Safe Family and Business plans users can group devices in up to 6 groups and filter them with different policies using the NAT DNS feature.

The configuration can be found in the DNS Director tab, located in the LAN section:

Configuring the filter using the DDclient

In rare cases when your router does not have a DynDNS/DDNS setting and your IP is Dynamic, you need to use third-party software - DDclient - on the PC connected to the network:

Comcast Xfinity Router Setup

Most Xfinity routers for both residential and business users come with the firmware that intercepts all DNS requests. Even if DNS addresses are changed, the router will continue redirecting DNS requests to Comcast servers.

Business users

For business users, DNS interception is controlled by the Security Edge feature that can be disabled in your account on the Comcast for Business portal.

Residential users

Unfortunately, residential users can not disable DNS interception on Xfinity routers.

However, there are several possible solutions on how to bypass DNS interception.

Solution 1 - connect a third-party router

Connecting a third-party router to Xfinity router will create a secondary network in which you have full control over router's settings. After that, set up the third-party router using this guide for routers and connect all your devices to it.

Solution 2 - install SafeDNS Agent on devices

The Agent is available on the following billing plans: Safe Family, Pro, Pro Plus, and archived Safe@Home, Safe@Office.

Alternatively, you can install SafeDNS Agents on all devices that require filtering. SafeDNS Agent works in any network.

Windows, Mac, Linux, Android

If you have installed SafeDNS Agent and the filtering doesn't work correctly, please check the parental control feature:

Log into Xfinity dashboard.
Navigate to Network.
Select your gateway/router.
Select device you need to remove parental controls from.
Unfortunately, this setting has to be disabled for each device separately.
Scroll down to the Assigned to panel and click on the cogwheel icon.
Click on the parental control option.
Select Off and click Apply Changes.

Solution 3 - use OpenVPN for filtering on devices

The filtering can be set up using a third-party application OpenVPN on all devices that require filtering.

Please follow this guide for OpenVPN setup.

Solution 4 - use DNS-over-HTTPS

Please follow this guide for DoH setup.

Starlink router setup

DNS configuration with a static IP address

Starlink routers only support static IP addresses. If you have a dynamic IP address you need to update it manually in the dashboard every time it changes.

2. Go to SafeDNS Dashboard > Settings > Devices and copy the DynDNS hostname of the needed WAN to the "IP addresses / DynDNS" box, choose a policy, and click "Add".

Once added, you will see it in the DynDNS section of the Dashboard.

After DynDNS is enabled, you can confirm it is working by performing a DNS query for the MX DDNS hostname. Open a command prompt (cmd) on any workstation and type "nslookup <your dynamic DNS name>." The DNS response should return the current active public IP address.
