Parent Control based on Network logged in on R6400

Looking for some assistance. I want to set up my dual band Router with my wife and I on one band and my kids on the other. I then want to set up the parent controls on the kids band to prevent them from accessing specific websites and even turn off at a specific time while leaving the other network along. Is this possible. I have googled this and search netgear community and have found lots of things but not what I am looking for. Thanks in advance, Greg

Hi @Gregthree3,

 

1. Yes, it is possible. However, using separate bands for you and your kids may be an issue since you may have devices that do not support both bands.

2. You can check the link below for an overview on the difference between the 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band.

3. As for LPC (Live Parental Controls), you can set it up with linked instructions below.
