how do I disable Safe Search from my Broadband, I've tried all the workarounds and they work for 5 mins and then reset to strict.

and when I go to content lock, that's blocked until I login, which is ok,  and when I do login, it shows there's no restrictions on 18+ websites.

You should be looking at Parental Controls under BB in your EE app, not Content Lock under Mobiles.

@robh661 : Content Lock is for mobiles. Which BB do you have, mobile or fixed Home BB?

Thanks, It took a while, as I needed to setup the wi - fi control, but managed to find the parental controls in the EE app, and turned safe search off in there.
