Parental controls for Northern Beaches homes

Weekend guests join the Wi-Fi. Your kids already know the guest password is the same as the house one. Tablets live on the lounge. Phones leave for the beach and the filter stays behind. That mix is the Beaches brief.

We split guest Wi-Fi for real, set device limits that travel, and signs the lounge TV into the right profile. Call 0493 563 381, or book an eligible visit.

Is the guest password still the house password?

If visitors and kids share one network, the filter is optional. We split that, then put Screen Time or Family Link on the devices that leave the house.

Beaches mix

  • Lounge tablets that never got a family account.
  • Guest Wi-Fi that is not actually separate.
  • Phones on the beach using mobile data.
  • A TV that autoplays after the surf check.
  • Price before we start.

What we change

  • Real guest SSID. Family DNS on the house network.
  • Device supervision. TV profile. Console if there is one.
  • Bypass check, then handover.

Towns

Manly, Dee Why, Brookvale, Mona Vale, Avalon Beach, and the rest of the Beaches. Remote when devices can sit with you.

Device supervision still runs. A router filter will not. That is why we set both.

Yes. Profiles can switch. We show you how, rather than locking the TV forever.
