D7000 - Parental Controls Suddenly Stopped Wirking

[Farleigh]

Been using the router fine with Parental controls setup and working perfectly. Yesterday tested all was fine in my daughters tablet and suddenly the parental controls are stopping anything. Checks all settings, DNS, OpenDNS, firmware etc and no reason why it shouldn't work. Any thoughts?

Hello Farleigh

Are you on the latest firmware?

[Farleigh]

Thanks Darren. Believe so. On V1.0.1.44_1.0.1

Hello Farleigh

Have you done a reboot of the modem or tried to set the parental controls up again see if they stick?

DarrenM

[Farleigh]

Thanks Darren, tried that. It seems to work on other devices just solely not my android tablets. Any ideas? Could it be a DNS issue?

[DarrenM]

It could be have you tried reserving the Ip address of the tablet in the Lan settings on the modem?

Set the nexus to a static IP address and even added the DNS servers for Opendns and still the nexus isn't being blocked. Any thoughts?

[Farleigh]

Fixed it! Disabled IPv6 on the router. All working as it should.
