Model: Archer AXE300  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.11 Build 20241115 rel.76431(4341)

Please change the logic for Kids Shield from Block by MAC Addres to BLOCK ALL and add an Exception List.

 

This will prevent new devices using random MACS to bypass the current logic.

This is a simple fix.

 

 

BLOCK ALL

ALLOW <- Devices

 

Attach ACL to Time Profle

Done, and bullet proof.

Hello@Trapper1204,

Welcome to our community.

 

Do you refer to at-home parental controls?
Generally speaking, we don't recommend setting a block all setting, as it has a wide impact, especially for users with multiple devices.

 

My suggestion is to enable whitelisting in Access Control and use it in conjunction with parental controls.
