Scheduled Access Control

From reading posts going back for years across dozens of products, I have divined that Access Control in my new-but-now-discontinued Orbi router, specifically device access control on a schedule, is purposefully crippled in order to drive people to purchase a subscription to parental controls. It's such a simple feature that has been available in every non-ISP router I have ever had and I'm sorry to see such in a Netgear product.
Before I go the Parental Control subscription route, I would like to just confirm that scheduling access of devices, e.g., no access from 11:00pm - 7:00am, is not possible on my RBR850 router. Thanks for the info!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello Goose66_2,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!!
I understand that you would like to control the time specific devices can access your network. Device access control due to time is not available without SMART Parental Control.

Re: Scheduled Access Control
You might get better help in the parental controls forum.

Re: Scheduled Access Control
Thanks, but I am trying to get confirmation that this cannot be done in Access Control in the router BEFORE going to the Parental Control solution (which is an additional expense).
