<p paraeid="{9fbdc579-db62-4b5b-852f-0d2094e0e383}{212}" paraid="185233717">ROKE’s broadband customers can protect their Wi-Fi networks by subscribing to bundle deals that contain the product. Having network-level protection on the DNS level means that every single DNS request is inspected. Whenever there’s an attempt to access a malicious domain, our DNS resolvers interrupt the connection and make sure the users stay safe. All of this happens without any impact on user experience such as slowing the connection down </p>

On top of that, they can easily control all of the content filtering features from one place thanks to a very intuitive graphical user interface.
