Netgear logging not working

I enabled all options using Netgear Genie for logging but none of the sites I visited on the allowed/blocked sites would show up in the logs.  Below is the list of options I enabled:

 

Attempted access to allowed sites

Attempted access to blocked sites and services

Connections to the Web-based interface of this Router

Known DoS attacks and Port Scans

Port Forwarding / Port Triggering

Wireless access

    Thanks for the reply James.  My router started logging again after I added a couple new entries, save, and did a complete shutdown/restart.

    Hi Toan,

     

    1. Did you configure block sites?

    2. What is the firmware version of the router?

        Hi Toan,

         

        I have the same firmware but my logs shows sites I visited that are blocked and allowed.

         

        Try to reset the router and reconfigure it manually.
