MR60

I tried to use keyworks to block certain websites. Then rebooted the router, but it did not work. How can I block websites on my router?

 

Thanks

  • The MR60? You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Nighthawk WiFi Routers. (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)

    Many questions apply to different types of device, so there may be useful responses here, but you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Nighthawk Mesh System - NETGEAR Communities

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

    You can't. It will never work, certainly not the way things are implemented today, because of most Web sites make use of https these days.
