Can you please provide us with the model of your deco units as well as the hardware and firmware version? You can find your hardware version on the bottom of your deco units and you can find your firmware version in the deco app by clicking on More > Systems
Also could you please refer to this link to help me submit the Deco App log:

Hi, welcome to the community.
Do you refer to the firmware upgrade of Deco M5?
It is suggested to refer to this post: Deco M5_1.8.5 Newly Introduced Advanced Parental Control Features
All the free features offered in previous Parental Control versions are saved, and the new firmware version also introduced the paid advanced parental control version.
Thank you very much.
Best regards.

Hi, thank you very much for the feedback.
Great! I see you also submitted the App log, which will be forwarded to the senior engineer for further analysis.
By the way, it seems like you have also updated to the latest 1.9.1 version for Deco M5. Did this firmware make any difference?
Have you tried to factory reset the Deco by holding the reset pinhole for 1s?
Wait for your reply.
Best regards.

I restarted everything, updated firmware, rebooted, deleted and downloaded apps and nothing worked.
At the end, I deleted my previous wifi network and created a new one. That solved the parental control restrictikn working on the background..
Nevertheless parental control is not working on the new wifi network either

Hi, did it still prevent creating the new profiles? or the new profiles can be created, but didn't work as configured?
Apart from "Delete the Network" on the Deco APP, have you tested the hardware reset by holding the reset pinhole for 1s?
Wait for your reply.
Best regards.
