Nighthawk parental controls
Hello, my parents recently bought a Nighthawk router, they're about to get the Netgear app (parental controls) to look at my search history and logs, which I'm fine with I'll just make sure I won't look up anything bad again. But I'm very worried that they can still see the stuff I did on our previous router (it didn't have parental controls, but it's still on the same Wi-Fi network as our new router). So on the parental controls are you able to see what you did on other routers? Or can you only see what went through the nighthawk router alone? Is there anyway I can delete the history?

They can't see the old stuff.
But if its something is bothering you that much, much have a talk with them.
Certain things are healthy if done properly or in the proper context.

If you're really that worried about it, accidentally reset the router.
but again, having a healthy conversation with them about it is the key.
