Parental controls on what Netgear device?
Whatever it is, you might have more luck in the section where they talk about parental controls.
NETGEAR Smart Home Parental Controls - NETGEAR Communities
My app will only connect anywhere access,
Which app? iOS? Android?
No sign of "Local Connection Available" in "Your Products"?
You won't see that, of course, if you are not connected to the local wifi network.
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". There may be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
If there is one it might also help if you told people the make and model number of the modem/gateway/ONT that sits between this router and the Internet. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
I ask because a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.
