I am a new user and am also having a problem getting parental control to work on my router. I have tried setting it up via Genie from two different computers and I cannot get it to block anything. I have followed the steps in these instructions, and have also tried to set the default blocking to high and create a bypass account, but no matter what I do, nothing gets blocked.
I have also tried to set specific block policies on devices using the network map, but no blocking. My device's DNS settings are set to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. I can successfully log in to my OpenDNS account but can't get it to apply the settings. I am using Verizon Fios as my ISP.
