Capturing requested urls on local network using vb.net
The problem is that most routers I’ve encountered simply don’t block anything effectively; they often have a restricted content section that doesn’t function as intended. I’ve explored options like pfSense and similar solutions, but they seem overly complex for my needs. Additionally, drawing from my experience in building TCP/IP web servers using VB.NET in the past, I’ve attempted to capture any HTTP headers floating around on my home network, but I can’t seem to capture anything, nor can I drop or divert anything to a blocked URL page-like feature. Despite my efforts, I haven’t been successful in implementing a solution that allows me to effectively block unwanted sites on my network. I’ve noticed that automated responses, like those from ChatGTP, often provide run-around or wild goose chase answers, which hasn’t been helpful. Can anybody provide guidance or assistance on how to achieve this?
