Blocking Browser extensions at the router
Hi,
I noticed the Netgear Family Control doesn't block browser extension VPNs. Is there a way at the router to do this (I tried blocking VPN services but the bowser extensions still work):
block the ports they use?
I see you can add to the executable to disable them; but does the new executable redirect to different servers like it does with safe search? Or is there a script I can run on a machine to force the executable with the disabled flag for Chrome and Edge?
