Thank you for the post. I have been experiencing issues where Genie gives an error message.
"There was an error signing in, pleae make sure you're connected to the Internet and try again."
This error has been occuring since the 1.11.0.20 firmware and continued with the 1.12.0.18.
When I updated to the 2.0.0.72 earlier tonight, initially parental controls seemed to work, but then the error message came back. I can log into netgear.opendns.com using the same credentials I try to log in with through Genie, so this doesn't seem like an authentication issue
Rajis,
If you Google the error you'll see Netgear have been suffering that problem on their devices for years. If you do a factory reset it works for a few days then the problem reappears. I have the same issue but got nowhere with Netgear support so just gave up. You can setup your own OpenDNS account and change the Orbi DNS servers to work with it. You don't get the 'per device' funtionality though.
