nighthawk app: pause/resume does not "blocking" devices from network
Everything was working fine untill recently...
This issue is very frustrating because sometimes I am forced to PAUSE my teenager son's PC (wired) so he does not stay extended hours (up to 6AM sometimes) playing video games.
I can access the devieces list from the nighthawk app from my android phone, I have the ability to PAUSE/RESUME the devices from my phone, I even double check everything by login in the NETGEAR router (yes, I already changed the password and it is not saved) set up through his PC (the ACCESS control is turned on). By the way, his PC is the only device that I can connect wired, as my laptop does not have a port for the traditional ethernet cable.
The status of the the devices do sync with my phone changes (PAUSE/RESUME) = STATUS (ALLOWED/BLOCKED) everytime I switch on my phone and hit refresh on the PC.
But even though it shows that a device is PAUSED / BLOCKED they still get internet connection. example, I paused his PC, it does show BLOCKED in the router settings, but internet still works.
My son is very smart and I don't know if he found a way to override the netgear access control.
Please help me to understhand what this can possibily be.
