Parental Controls
Netgear Genie parental controls are not working. Now when I try to change the control setting to moderate, the genie says I am not connected to the router.

Can you try to change the settings via https://netgear.opendns.com/ ? (Not with Genie)

I have been struggling with OpenDNS and Netgear for the past two months. Can't get either to block certain websites from my kids.
Below are the text output of the diagnostic command from

Currently you don't use OpenDNS or LPC at all, but another DNS service. The first hop is to:
Server: ib-01-lan1.dc7.scz.us.nvidia.com
Address: 10.126.136.6...and from there on to an external DNS service. Check at dnsleaktest.com what DNS service this is.
It doesn't look that you have a Netgear router, so there is no "Live Parental Controls". You would have to use OpenDNS Home. Check at your Nvidia device if you have already configured the OpenDNS resolver addresses there.

I have same problem. I don't know how long it has been not working but I encounter same site that we didn't want to see. When I check the setting at https://netgear.opendns.com/sign_in.php , the setting is moderate.
It now working at all. Please help. My router is only 1 1/2 years old.

Do I start from https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us?
Where do I find the complete plain text output?
It will be helpful if you can upload on YouTube how to do this. Thank you.

I connected WNDR3400 which is my old Netgear router so that our home will be protected.
I changed the setting to "High" for filtering level in the parental controls, but old router doesn't filter either.

This is what it says in tthe terminal winder after I copied and pasted.

You are using a DNSv6 service.
Server: 2001:558:feed::1
Address: 2001:558:feed::1#53Configure your IPv6 settings with DNS server addresses from the following list:
::ffff:d043:dedc ::ffff:d043:dcde ::ffff:d043:dede ::ffff:d043:dcdcBtw, the third command output is still missing, but I don’t need it anymore.

I went to System Preference -> Network-> then clicked on "Advanced" box on bottom right.
Then clicked on "DNS". Then clicked on + next to IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.
I pasted ::ffff:d043:dedc ::ffff:d043:dcde ::ffff:d043:dede ::ffff:d043:dcdc in the empty space and saved. Did I do correctly?
