The smartphone cannot access internet at all or some webpages are allowed to open?

I have exactly same problem.
Parent control is not working. It was main reason for upgrading old router. Unfortunately old piece of crap replaced with new piece of crap.

None seems to have solution .

TP-LINK parent control is NOT WORKING !!!

If your guys want to get technical support from TP-LINK, click here http://uk.tp-link.com/support/contact/?categoryid=530.
"Parental control is not working..."Do you configure it properly? If something during your configuration is misunderstood or misconfigured, it may not work then.
