Turn Your PC into an Ad Blocking Router!

Ads are everywhere on the internet, and sometimes they’re so in your face, it’s difficult to enjoy the content on the webpage you’re trying to read. Ads can also slow down your browsing experience and worse sometimes promote questionable content or inappropriate content.

DNS Ad Blocker

Ads are often dynamically loaded into web pages based on your browsing history or cookies on your machine. In either case, the web page has to download all these additional banners, images, and videos slowing down your browsing experience and using up additional data on content you don’t even want to see in the first place!

Most ad blockers still allow all of that activity to happen, but just hide the ads so you can’t see them. Connectify Hotspot is different - Ads are blocked at the DNS level which means they’re not just hidden from view, they’re prevented from loading in the first place!
