Blocking a website on my network, can't seem to get it to work. please help.
Hello was hoping someone could help me out. I am trying to see if the instructions given on the website for blocking a website work and I am just having a real hard time. Here are the steps I am taking
- ).Visit http://www.routerlogin.net.
- http://www.routerlogin.com
- http://192.168.1.1
- http://192.168.0.1
- http://10.0.0.1
- I enter my credentials
- I then go to this view and try entering in a domain to block then hit apply
I click apply then go to see if it is blocked and the site is not blocked.
Wondering what the heck I am doing wrong. The router I use is an Orbi RBR20.
Thanks for you help in advance.

I noticed my screenshot did not come through but it is just the standard block site UI where you choose when you want it blocked, enter the domain or keywords then hit apply.
I do all this and when I try accessing that website i can still hit it.
Thanks

This consumer class feature is stuck in the pre-https times - unless I'm very wrong, this feature is (honeslty) useless as of writing today.

@schumaku : Thanks for this. Any ideas as to what I can do without having to pay for a service to support this. I am fairly novice when it comes to this tech stuff.
Just want to be able to easily turn on and off access to websites throughout the day on my network or even better a specific computer on my network.
Thanks
