Hi!I bought a non-cheap router!The R9000 X10!Netgear recently claimed to be the fastest router.Well, that's right.But!A very important feature is missing: parental control.My previous (cheap) Netgear router supported the Cicrle app, but the R9000 did not.I have a subscription to the Circle for a whole year!If I can't use it, who did I throw the money out the window?Was the Circle a waste of money and the R9000 too?How can I use Parental Control?I want to determine when my children can access the internet.Is this such a request?Please help solve this problem!
Thank you so much for this answer, it was terribly helpful!So I have an immeasurably expensive router that I can throw away in the trash.Thanks!Is there anything you can know about how Netgear plans to handle parental controls after April 2021?Because there is no information about that.
Something to check into. Thought not sure if the R9000 series will be supported. We don't get that kind of future planning information here in the forums.
I would not throw the R9000 router in the trash, it still has good use. Though you may find someone to buy it. Or maybe see if 3rd party FW has any solutions that may help you out. Like DD-WRT or Voxel. OpenDNS maybe something to look into as well.
