    Can't get OpenDNS to work on home network

    Hi,

    I’m trying to set up OpenDNS on my home network for web filtering. I’ve followed the directions here but I must have done something wrong along the way because it’s not working. I’m really not at all familiar with IP Addresses and DNS etc. but as far as I know, in my router settings I changed my DNS to point to OpenDNS:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220

    However, neither the test site InternetBadGuys.com, nor a dummy domain that I manually and specifically added to the block list, are actually being blocked.

    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks!
