Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi,

I want to enable Parental control of Wired LAN desktop PC which is connected to satellite Deco M5.

Even I set Parental control by mac address, next time connection changes mac address and no more Parental control valid.

The PC doesn't have WIFI thus, I cannot find random mac address setting on PC itself.

Perhaps, random mac address is generated by M5?

Does anybody help me?

It is possible to manually change Ethernet MAC address on a Windows PC. There are even free utilities that make it relatively seamless process for a non-technical person. For example, "SMAC Tool" for Windows (google it).

Are you sure that Windows PC user does not change MAC address to bypass parental controls?
