If you really want to block ALL sites, except for specific sites that
you allow, you can tell Windows that you have a proxy server (you can
call it "server"), and the sites that you want to allow, you can put
in the proxy exclusion list.

The result is that non-allowed sites will be sent to a non-existent
proxy server and will fail.

I think the Windows internet settings apply to all browsers, but I'm
not certain. If all else fails, you can simply apply the same settings
to all of the browsers

I looked at my DD-WRT router (Dd-WRT is a third-party router firmware;
I think it MIGHT work on your DI524), but it doesn't have that
feature.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
