Parental Controls Whitelist

My Dec X68 doesn't have a whitelist capability for parental controls which I disappointly I only found out once it was sold to me. However I read recently TP-Link has released new firmware which now provides this whitelisting capability. My firmware is up to date however the 1.2.5 version still doesn't seem to have whitelist capability. Does anyone know if the this parental control capability has in fact been added? And if so when the firmware will be released? Thanks....

Hi, welcome to the community.
Do you mean the "WiFi Access Control" feature here:
Take Control of Your Wi-Fi with Powerful Access Features
--For Deco X68_V1, the current 1.2.5 hasn't added this feature. I'm afraid you might still need to wait for a further firmware upgrade.
Or the Whitelist for website content restriction,
Currently, all Deco models that support HomeShield don't have this feature.
Thank you very much.
Best regards.

Hi David,
First, many thanks for your quick response.
I am referring to the WiFi Acess Control feature. Without this the parental control features on my Deco are next to useless with tech savvy kids using random MAC addresses. The lack of this basic functionality has been a real disappointment with the Deco X68. Any parents wanting to control screen time a whitelist feature like is in the access controls is a must. Without it it is a bust!
Do you have any idea when TP-Link will be releasing a firmwear upgrade that has the wi-fi Access Controls functionality?
I am at the stage where I will need to change my home network out if it is not soon.
Many thanks....
Cheers,
Adam

Hi, thanks for the confirmation.
There have been no updates regarding the ETA for this particular firmware version. I'm also uncertain of how long it would take.
Best regards.
