Anyway, there is a Parental Control -> URL Filter setting in the modem.
I added "mylotto.co.nz" and "www.mylotto.co.nz" to be filtered, and then did a ipconfig /flushdns.
Then when trying to browse to mylotto.co.nz, Chrome displays this message:
This site can’t be reached
Check if there is a typo in www.mylotto.co.nz.

Another fascinating aspect of Netgear support is that the forum package does not display images placed "iin-line" using the Photos icon in the menu bar until they are approved by a forum moderator. Images attached using the Browse button in the lower left appear immediately.
I have commented to moderators that (a) this is stupid and (b) it would save users a lot of bother if the Photos icon simply disappeared.
(to no avail).
