Hi gworley,

 

May I know if you are using the Insider Preview build of Windows 10?

 

You may try setting a static DNS for your laptop and use the OpenDNS one which are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 and see if the Parental Controls work.

Hi DexterJB,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

I am currently using build 1024 of Windows 10.

 

I am using the OpenDNS DNS servers on the router but will try them on the laptop.

 

Thanks,
