Just come home with the MR60. Clearly misled by the sales rep that this would include parental control options but as I am discovering, it doesn't. Do you still have this set up and if so, have you found an alternative?

No solution, the MR60 apparently has been left in the dust regarding parental controls. It was in between Netgear's use of Circle and SPC. Funny thing is after realizing how much cheaper the MR60 was than the Orbi and how well the MR60 was performing I called Netgear during my 90 day support, while I still had the box from Costco, and asked "what's the difference between MR60 and Orbi". The answer was Orbi is for a bigger house with more metal. I chuckled and said: yep, that's non-sense. Sure enough 6 months later I find out on my own what the difference is.
