Need a refund for parental controls rbk752

I had no idea parental controls would disable custom DNS. This was not disclosed when signing up. I've looked all over the site, but no way to contact Netgear to get a refund. Thanks

Also after disabling parental controls, I still can't access the DNS setting. They could have just used MAC addresses vs DNS to limit access. I assume I'll need to do a factory reset to get my DNS settings back.

You'd actually need to talk to support. This is the community support forum where members of the public help out. 

 

To get a hold of support for subscriptions services like Armor/Circle, click on "MyNetgear" at the top.
Register an account (or login) and then the device.
From there you can start the support process.

Yes, reset the RBR and setup from scratch. Just dont' enable or use SPC on the Orbi app.
