Cannot Reset Parental Filtering for Bose Soundtouch Speaker
Model R8000, Nighthawk X6, Firmware 1.0.3.4 (Genie tells me it's the latest version), just updated Genie software as well. I have parental controls enabled, blocking most "time-wasters", so to speak. Pandora is one of them. The speaker has connected successfully to a Netgear AP (older model, I haven't enabled WiFi on my R8000 yet). It connects just fine to the Internet. When I globally disable parental controls, Pandora shows up as an available service in the Bose app. When I re-enable parental controls, it disappears as Pandora is blocked. When I try to set the Parental Controls on the Bose to something other than "Default", it won't change. I can't set it to "None", "Low", "Minimal", or anything else. Bypass is not a possibility as I cannot install Genie on the Bose speaker. I contacted Bose support and figured out it was the parental controls that was blocking Pandora. But now I can't reset the parental controls, so the issue is with the R8000. Any suggestions on how to get the R8000 to change the parental controls on the Bose? Thanks. -mattSolved3.2KViews0likes3Comments
