Feature Request

It would be great, if there is a feature for the BR500 and WAC540 to allow us to change the client name, which we can then recognize as to which devices are on the network, etc., through the Insight Application and also on the admin page and to have a feature as well on these two devices to have parental controls as well, if businesses are using it for their work, whilst working from home, etc.

Also, another suggestion of a feature under "Block Sites" in the back end of the admin page that you can just type "Pornography", "Explicit Content", which it will block all sites internationally on the website, instead of us having to mention the "Keyword and Domain Name" on it.  Businesses would like to have it as well, because they want their employees to work safely on the network, etc.

Lastly, it would be great if the WC540 could be supplied with a Power Supply in the box as well, instead of purchasing it separately.

Thank you.

Following on with my above feature request.  It would be great to see this implemented urgently during this deadly and spreadable virus of the International COVID19 pandemic crisis.

It would be great for all Netgear Devices including the BR500 and the WAC540 and any new upcoming Netgear Products for all the Business, Enterprise, and Residential to have these important features.

It would be great if the following could be included in the upcoming updates:


•  For blocking websites, support https, and block all pornographic websites.

•  Include a feature wherein the traffic generated by the device is shown in the logs.

•  It would be great if you could also include in the feature request to your engineers, to have an inbuilt system to allow anyone to click

   on any countries, which they would like to block people from accessing any sites from that they think is not suitable because of the

   international crisis, etc., which would block all traffic and sites from certain countries, such as China, etc.

In conclusion, it would be great to see the above feature request to be included with urgency in the latest updates for all products and including the new ones going to launch soon.

Lastly, it would be great for all devices to have the new WiFi 6, which is the latest technology in today's society so that everyone is able to be able to get the very best WiFi speeds out of their own network in their particular country.

Thank you.
