Access Control automatically turn on/off by schedule
I really like the Access Control feature, which allows me to block access to internet for my childrens devices (selected by MAC address) during the night, while at the same time still allowing my wife and I to access internet. But, is there a way to have Access Control turn on/off automatically each evening? It seems that if you could just allow it to be connected with the existing Schedule feature this would be real simple to add. If this is not currently possible, can you PLEASE add this ability to the WNDR3400v3? Or is there a better way to do this?
Change Genie Login Architecture on desktop version
NETGEARGenie logs in automatically. However, if parental controls are set up and being used on a home network or the computer, the controls are essentially open for anyone to shut off, because the application automatically logs in. I recommend adding architecture for loggin in to Genie on the desktop computer version or else adding a means to require a username and password before changes to the Parental Controls can be made. Unfortunately, the only alternative is to only maintain the moile app for controling the parental controls and then each time we need to utilize the Genie controls or functionality in the desktop version we must reinstall the program, make the changes or troubleshoot the issue and then delete it again. Obviously this is not ideal nor user friendly. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
NETGEAR D7000: Controllo Genitoriale
Salve a tutti, Sto usando il router D7000 da marzo scorso con grande soddisfazione, ma ultimamente sto riscontrando problemi nella gestione del Controllo Genitoriale. In particolare non riesco a cambiare il livello di protezione di alcuni dispositivi connessi alla mia rete domestica, cioè il computer dei ragazzi risulta in "Accesso Bypass" e, quando tento di cambiarlo con Genie mi appare una finestra con un messaggio che dice: "L'accesso all'account bypass è attivo sul dispositivo, disconnettersi prima dall'account bypass". Preciso che lo stesso identico messaggio mi appare quando tento di fare lo stesso cambio attraverso l'app Genie sul cellulare Android. In realtà, tra le altre cose, non ho definito nessun Bypass Account nel profilo del sito Netgear LPC di OpenDNS. Nel tentare di risolvere il problema ho aggiornato il firmware del router alla versione V1.0.1.44_1.0.1, ho resettato e riconfigurato da zero il router, ho aggiornato Genie per PC (Win 7) alla versione 2.4.34, mentre quella per Android alla versione 2.4.38. Appena reinizializzato il router tutto sembra funzionare correttamente, ma dopo un po' alcuni dispositivi entrano in questa modalità di bypass e non è più possibile impostare il livello di protezione voluto. Inoltre da qualche giorno sul PC l'applicazione Genie si chiude inaspettatamente. Voglio sottolineare che fino ad alcuni mesi fa tutto funzionava a meraviglia e che avevo la possibilità di cambiare il livello di protezione sui dispositivi usati dai ragazzi secondo necessità, ora non più. Come posso risolvere questo problema?Netgear Genie Can't Identify Router and I can't use routerlogin.net
This has all started because I want to use the parental controls. I downloaded the Genie app on my laptop (a windows 10 pc) and ran it....it shows I am connected to the internet, but the programm cannot find my router. I have also tried this on my android phone with the SAME issue. I CAN log into my router via 192.168.1.1 but i CANNOT log into it via routerlogn.net or .com. I get the following message: " You are not connected to your Router’s WiFi network. To access routerlogin.net, your device must be connected to your Router’s WiFi network. Check your current connection and try again." I have restarted the router, hard rest the router, restarted the computer, and uninstalled and reinstalled the software. This is seriously confusing....I can connect to the internet, it sees the wireless network I'm on, but NOT my router. What gives? My firmware version is showing as: DD-WRT v3.0-r28815M (01/15/16) on the web interface I can access. But online, the product support shows a TOTALLY different labeling system...could this be it? I'm hesitate to do a firmware upgrade when it looks so different for fear I'll brick the router. I just want to limit my kids time vegging out on YouTube watching minecraft videos. ANY help is appreciated!!Netgear Genie not connecting to open DNS for parental controls on Android or Windows 8
Hi everyone. I am not the most tech savvy person, but I am learning. I have a very resourceful 15 year old I am desperately trying to protect from various websites and this issue is driving me crazy as it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for but simply not working. I have an Open DNS account I created online, I have certain sites blocked through that accunt oline which is connected to my Netgear. But I can type them in and visit them from any device connected to the internet via this router. When I try to login in to the Open DNS, I get this an error message saying to verify that I'm connected to the internet and try again. I am obviously connected to the internet as I'm online posting to this forum. Is anyone else experiencing this? How was it resolved? Please help!!!! Thanks in advance.Auto login for NETGEARGenie
BLUF: NETGEARGenie logs in automatically. We have parental controls set up, but it's essentially open for anyone to shut it off because the application automatically logs in. I cannot find anywhere to stop this or for that matter where I would even enter a password for the application.
