RBR50: Cannot select "Access Control" under Advanced / Security

RBR50: Cannot select "Access Control" under Advanced / Security

RBR 50, firmver version V2.5.1.16

I want to block a device from accessing the network.

 

Online at OrbiLogin.com, I select the Advanced tab and open Security.

But "Access Control" is grayed out.  What am I missing?

 

     Thank you,   Art Lieberman

   Connected to what?

   Is your RBR50 configured as a wireless access point?

 

   Here's a list of features which are disabled in a router-as-WAP:

   I don't see "Access Control" explicitly on that list, but it sounds
as if it might be a router function.

 

   I, obviously, know nothing, but there are Orbi-specific forums:

Do you have Armor or Circle enabled by chance?
