SET A DEVICE TO AUTO LOGIN
Non-PC devices that have to access the Internet must be set to auto
login. This is because they do not have a login screen where you can
enter a user name and password.
When setting a device to auto login, you have to select either Non-PC
Device or a specific user account which serves as the auto login account:
•Non-PC DeviceGives the device unlimited Internet access
(but not privileged status).
• User Account Limits the device’s Internet access, based on
the content and time filters associated with the account
SOLUTION: When should I select a user account?
Select a user account instead of Non-PC Device when
you want to restrict Internet access. For example, if you
do not want your children to use a game console after 10
pm, create an account with a time filter that blocks
access from 10 pm until 10 am the following morning.
