If you don't know how to manage your devices without the app, I don't know why you'd be in the app forum. Walk, then run. If you going to disagree with me, at least use civil discourse. I did say please.

Orko1978 - we all know how to manage our routers without the app. The point is Netgear keeps release versions of the app with the one feature you even want it for no working. This is two versions in a row with this problem, my issue started with 2.4.24.1. Now they have released 2.5.0.47 and even more people are affected.
The only reason I have the app is for a convenient way to block my kid’s device such as Xbox or PlayStation from the internet. Let’s say it’s midnight and I’m lying in bed and I hear my son yelling and screaming in Fortnite. I don’t want to have to get up, go down to my office, log into my computer and block his console. I know what you are going to say...you can do that through safari or chrome on your phone. Have you ever tried to interact with DumaOs on your phone browser? Terrible.
