Parental controls limit time is not enough for online lessons

Model: Archer C60  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.2.0 Build 20201231 rel.39772(4555)

There's maximum of 8 hours I can limit online time from parental controls, 4 hours is spent during lessons, then after 13:00 there's 4 hours left but at 18:00 my child has private lesson for 1 hour, so he has to be responsible to spare some remaining time for private 1 hour, but you know it's impossible :) He'll spend it by playing online games. So, out of lessons we need 5-6 hours extra, so the limit of maximum 8 should be 10 or 12 hours better. Instead of increasing max time (but more difficult to implement as I'm sw developer) there can be definition of internet addresses(eg. online lesson systems' addresses) which doesn't count for online time

Thank you for your suggestion. We will take a look if we can optimize the feature in the foreseeable future.

Hello Kevin,

 

Already functions for blocked content filtering exist, I suppose same functions should work oppositely to not to count from online time


For example there can be extra UI like below at "Time Controls" page (exact copy of the UI from "Blocked Content" page, only text descriptions change)
-----------------------------------------
Exclude Content

Exclude all websites from online time that contain a specific keyword:
 

(school_online_lesson_address_domainname.com  X)
(private_lesson_domainname.com  X)

(wikipedia.com  X)



Add a new keyword [ keyword input field ] [ button add keyword]
----------------------------------------

 

FYI: below image is from "Blocked Content" page

I think you are referring to the Whitelist function. This will be also recorded in the system, and report to the developers for consideration.
