Hi - I cannot get the parental control to work at all

Is there a phone number I can access or should I upgrade my modem

Hi @Lucien ,

 

Welcome to the community!

 

Our supplied TP-Link vr1600 parental control only support word restriction unfortunately it does not have a feature to manually block a website/URL.

 

You may look for a 3rd party software that will allow you to block website/URL. Let us know should you require further assistance.

 

Cheers!

As I understand, it is designed to cut off access individual devices and given times. Im not concerned about blocking sites, just want to limit device time.This is how it is marketed. I want to know why it doesnt work, and how I can get it working
