Help me figure this out? OpenDNS not working..

I've set everything up as instructed on my router and on my local settings. Cleared DNS cache and Resolver cache. I get the orange check mark at https://www.opendns.com/welcome/ but I have no network stats on the website.

How long ago did you set this up? The stats available with the graphs at the top of the page are for the previous day - See where it says "Recent activity (all networks, last day)." If you click one of the options at the left side of the page, such as Total Requests you can see information for the current day.

Under settings for your network, in "Stats and Logs", do you have "Enable Stats and Logs" checked? I think it's checked by default, but without it no stats will be saved for you.

If you want a further check of if OpenDNS is working correctly you could try to access a website for which you've blocked the domain through either a category or a blacklist.

Set it up about an hour ago. Recent activity shows zero activity. Stats and logs is enabled. Blocked a url and I still have access to it.

If you set it up today then you wont see it in recent activity, since as that page says it only shows the previous day. For current day you need to look at the options on the left side of the page.

You couldn't have blocked a URL since OpenDNS blocks domains, not URL's. Anyway, I'll assume that you blocked a domain in the categories or by blacklisting. If its not being blocked when you try to access the website, then something isn't set up correctly.

What domain were you trying to test?

"Set it up about an hour ago."

Stats are not real-time.  Initially it takes 24 hours, going further 1-3 hours for the stats to appear.
