• Limiting screen time for kids: Parents can set internet use quotas or restrict internet access to certain hours for each device owned by children, including laptops, smartphones, tablets, and game consoles.
• Web filtering: Prevent children from accessing adult, violent, gaming, and social networking websites and filter out explicit search results. Users can apply filters flexibly, for example, restricting social media during homework hours.
• Track usage: Safe Access provides insight into kids' activities online, such as the daily amount of time spent on the web or whether they have attempted to visit inappropriate websites.

Advanced networking features in Synology Router Manager
Known for its popularity among router enthusiasts, SRM includes a host of advanced networking capabilities, including VPN server hosting, fine-grained control of bandwidth usage of devices on the network, and VLAN network segmentation.

• VPN Plus: Ideal for remote workers and office use, VPN Plus provides the ability to quickly establish secure connections to internal networks behind the router, bridge multiple locations together with secure IPsec tunnels for resource sharing across different networks, and access to desktop software from anywhere with remote desktop functionality.
• Traffic management: WRX560's built-in traffic management tools provide users with precise control and oversight over their network traffic. With the ability to view detailed application and device traffic information and apply traffic shaping and quality of service policies, users can optimize their network based on their specific needs.
• VLAN network segmentation: The VLAN network segmentation feature lets users create VLANs and define custom firewall rules, quality of service policies, and access policies for each VLAN. For home users, VLAN network segmentation is most often used to isolate vulnerable IoT devices from the main network to keep PCs and NAS secure from potential intrusions.
