Genie: 2.4.2 Device-based parental controls filtering keeps reverting back to "Default"

This problem still persists again. A previous fix was made, but I am having the same issue with Genie verison 2.4.22 for MAC, using the wireless N router. The deve-based parrental controls do not persists nor do their effects work on the specified device.

  • Hi rtdeloatch,

     

    1. What is the model number and firmware version of your device?

    2. Please try setting the filtering level on another device (iOS, Android, another computer).

      Hi I was able to change the settings using the Genie App, so I no longer have the problem (though I still can't change it on my MAC computer). So the problem is sort of resolved.
