Parental controls Not working i have tried everything Help Needed
- I have been using parental controls for over 3 years I use a NETGEAR r7800 I am logged into the router via NETGEAR Genie I have blocked every single category on both the Bypass occur and the default account yet all the sites are still working I have tried blocking an individual site and that does not seem to work either No idea where to go from here I have factory reset my router I have made sure the Mac address matches up and I am quite an advanced user I have spent 3 hours doing this and it's driving me mad some help needed please some suggestions I would use open DNS on its own but you can't do time blocks and that is one of the main reasons I need it and to be able to control different devices on the network with different parental control settings so if anybody has any advice suggestions things to try please let me know many thanks

Sorry to see that you have an immense problem with your punctuation mark keys. I suggest to use a functioning keyboard going further.
Regarding Live Parental Controls (LPC), do not try "everything", but just this: https://kb.netgear.com/25687/ - nothing else!
Also, Netgear said that LPC does not work with IPv6 connectivity, so if you have IPv6 connectivity, you need to disable this.
If it still does not work, your best bet is to raise a support case with Netgear or to visit their community forum. You may need to downgrade to an older firmware version or to use a Genie app on a different platform.
