"Block all new devices from connecting" Blocks All Devices
I have an Orbi CBR40 Modem / router and an RBS20 satellite. I've tried several times to turn on the "Block all new devices from connecting" radio button in the http://orbilogin.com/start.htm router a...
Thank you for the suggestion. Best I can tell, Open DNS is for limiting internet traffic based on content (e.g., no porn) or time of day. These settings apply to all devices equally. It does not have the ability to block devices. When I searched their community on how to block devices it directs back to Netgeer's "Access Controls" which don't work per my original message.
While I appreciate your parenting advice, it is not possible to remove devices from an addict. If you take one they will just steal another. Every school, house, and person has tons of devices laying around, many of which are not being used and won't even be missed.
Back to the original problem. Netgear built "access controls" to be able to white list and black list devices. Is there no way to get it to actually work?
Thank you
Any progress on this?
