This is an Archer VR500v in Australia. I have added my devices to connect to this via WiFi in the White List and then turned on Access Control. As soon as this is done the internet is lost and all WiFi connections dropped. Even rebooted router and WiFi devices can not connect even though the SSID is visible. The internet is provided via a USB dongle using 4g wireless internet.
LEDs look normal, used 2 different dongles, one is a ZTE the other a Huawei E3351, both work until access control on and even when access control on, the led on the dongles still show conection to the internet. All WiFi devices in White List. After this problem, removed all from white list so it is empty and so is the black list, still fails when access control on. No error messages, all works fine with access control off, all WiFi devices can reconnect when access control turned off and internet reestablished. Only use wireless internet as I am still waiting for the telco to provide a wired connection to my home.
