Netgear Orbi rbk50 Access control

Hello,

 

i configured access control in Orbi RBK50 to block all new devices from connecting. I do have the current firmware installed: V2.2.1.210

After connecting with two new devices from the same vendor with different mac addressses i have the problem that always one of the diveces stays blocked. Event when i activate the device. Either the device i just unblocked or both devices return to the blocked state.

 

I am not able to set both devices to active. In the logs a could not find any error message.

 

Any idea where is problem is coming from from?

Many thanks

Best regards, Bernd

Access Control does not work correctly in the current software (2.2.1.210). To avoid random blocking issues I’d disable Access Control until this is -hopefully- solved in a coming software.
