While researching this issue, I noticed my OpenDNS parental controls was from the firmware, so I downgraded to 2.7.0.70. It was still missing so I went back to 2.6.1.40 and it came back. It looks like there's a lot more going on here than just the first issue I reported.
I tried to downgrade my satellites and only one would take the older firmware. I can't connect to the other two satellites' IP addresses for some reason after downgrading the router so I'll need to figure something out. They appear to be handling the traffic fine on the 2.7.2.104 firmware so I'm not going to kill too much time on it.
The Deco M9 Plus is rock solid so it's staying up for now. I'll post back when I have another update.

Application of new FW may have changes some behind the scenes features. Try a factory reset and setup from scratch and see if the ACL problem still happens.

Say it isn't so.
wouldn't it be easier that you go to the firmware development team and tell them of their failure here?
I don't think you can fix broken
