RBR50v2 Firmware Upgrade 2.7.2.104 Lost Parental Controls
I read that Circle is going away and I found this link to install Netgear Smart Parental Controls (https://kb.netgear.com/000062852/How-do-I-upgrade-from-Circle-to-NETGEAR-Smart-Parental-Controls#To%...
I always keep my firmware up to date so probably the last version.
I followed the directions...
To log in to your router’s web interface and enable NETGEAR SPC:
- Launch a web browser on a computer that is connected to your Orbi router’s WiFi network.
- Visit www.routerlogin.net.
- Enter the default user name and password.
The default user name is admin. The default password is password.
The BASIC page displays. - Select ADVANCED > Security > Parental Controls.
- Click UPGRADE TO NETGEAR SPC at the bottom of the page.
A confirmation message displays. - Select OK.
Your router reboots.
After the reboot the ADVANCED > Security > Parental Controls is gone
on the app no Parental Controls tile
and no ADD ONS...
Everything else is working just fine... dreading falshing to factory default ..
LOL I want to pay!! But not for the Support.. and it kinda sucks that they are making a huge swing in the Parental Controls add-on with no amended support so I can ask questions when it doesn't work. Circle was good for what I needed and still need till these kids are off at collage.
