Parental Controls not working properly
Opendns settings not working. My n300 wireless router wnr2000 v3 is not blocking sites according to the opendns settings anymore. It was working for quite sometime then recently it stopped working...

I wasable to come up with a solution. Thank you for your help. The only solution that I was able to come up with was to use Netgear genie app. Instead of using OpenDNS Netgear. I setup Genie to have parental control. Linkedin the OpenDNS account. Set the filtering. Enabled the filter using Genie. And bingo. it works.

Get Automatically from ISP
Yes i tried to disable and re-enable parental control to no effect.
I pushed the red restore factory reset button to no effect.
Any other suggestions?

How about if you check the DNS/Domain Name Server on this screen?

The Domain Name Servers should be 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.
You'll be able to get that by accessing the admin page of the router.
See the steps here.
