N450 - CG3000DV2 - No Content Filtering in software V1.03.03?

Did netgear remove content filtering from the N450 or did my ISP.

 

I noticed online in netgear support that v 1.02.10 supported content filtering and there is documentation on how to activate it.  I remember with my old NG router this could be done.  Now that I need to activate it on my N450, the option/category is not available on the menu on v .1.03.03.

 

I also noticed that you can not update the firmware yourself as I could before on my older NG routers and said it could only be done by the ISP through the inet.  My ISP is COX.

    Hello dargpat

     

    according to the article it is only available in v1.02.10 I would have to check why it was taken out if Netgear did it.

  • Yes, I also need "Content Filtering". The manual says it is available but it not! Very frustrating to purchase something for a specific reason, then it does not do what it is advertised to do - "Content Filtering".

     

    Thanks.
