Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.7.3

Hi

A few updates ago my Deco M5 parrental control stopped work properly. I set daily usage limit, which doesn't reset next day. It means next morning application shows that limit is reached without showing any activity. I am sure devices don't use the limit at night because every day I turn off deco system for night time (maybe this causes this problem?). When I turn it on next day devices under parrental control cannot use Internet. If there is any logged activity from the previous days I can use "remove all activity" function and then daily limit is reset.

  @David-TP It appears that the daily limits reset if the device is still on some time after midnight.

Hi, Thank you very much for your feedback.

Could you please refer to this link to help me submit the Deco APP log:

How to submit Deco APP log

 

I think it might be related to powering off Deco every night. I remembered that Deco would automatically refresh its settings at a specific time but when it is off, It is unable to refresh the network settings. The 1.7.3 of Deco M5 supports ECO mode and reboot schedule, I think instead of powering it off every night, you could set up a power-saving schedule and reboot schedule.

Wait for your reply and best regards.

Thank you very much. I have received the logs and please also update here whether the daily limits would be reset if we no longer power off the Deco at night.

best regards.

 Do you plan to fix this bug in next firmware release? Keeping router always on isn't a solution for me.
