I second this—powerful and easy to use. Since my kids tend to get addicted to electronic devices, they have a specific hour on Tech Tuesday (school computer homework) that the Firewalla Gold unblocks the internet (at least the stuff that they should access) for 1 hour to get done. If they get done quick enough, they are allowed the remainder for games or research on something that they are learning. If they earn a segment of computer times, I’ll manually unblock their computer for 30 min. Sometimes I’m at work and my wife asks me to unblock, which can be done from my phone.
