Access Block Devive Doesnt WORK !! R8500
I have the latest firmware on my router.
If I block a device ,it does NOT block it full time. Intermittently it is allowed for about 3 minutes. Long enough to cause IP CONFLICT to popup.
One would think block means block all the time,NOT RANDOM BLOCKING

Re: Access Block Devive Doesnt WORK !! R8500
I just purchased a 6400 and the Access Control feature only allows me to block access to the internet. Devices can still connect to me network. That's a major issue for me. I decided to return it.

@dalepbaker Try to reflash the firmware, reset and then reconfigure the router.
What kind of device are you trying to block?
Did you also try downgrading the firmware to see whether if it will exhibit the same issue?

I have done everything thing suggested. It allows blocked device to have internet access 3 minutes of every 30 minutes.
Need to fix with a secure firmware. Block means 100 percent BLOCK all the time. Never allowing any access

@dalepbaker I'm unable to replicate the problem. Mine is totally blocked when Parental Control is enabled.
If this is within the warranty period, get a replacement.
Edit: I have also blocked the device and it's blocked the whole time.
