Won't Block Facebook or Twitter
I just installed the latest firmware, and added keyword blocking. I cannot block facebook or twitter, but I can block youtube.
I have added facebook, facebook.com, www.facebook.com https://facebook.com, https://www.facebook.com
They can still connect. What am I missing?

Re: Won't Block Facebook or Twitter
I was told by tech suppotr that they don't, so I had to go and buy a Cisco router so I could. I guess I'm changing my clients over to Cisco. It is terrible that it is not an option, so that companies cannot block employees from sites. Plus this version of the router only has a maximum of 60Mb/s total. My other client had upgraded there ISP speed to 60/15 and I was only getting 35/15 on the speed test from ookla. No more netgear products for my clients.
