@Chacha420 Use whitelisting under access control (if available in your model), adding each device to the whitelist. Next time the phone changes MAC, it will fail to connect. Explain what you've done and that he'll need to NOT randomize the MAC for that SSID connection. Then your blocking function will continue to work.

Does your son know that it's the random MAC address that makes it possible to bypass the blacklist? If not, and if it's possible, you can try to change the Randomized MAC address to the Fixed MAC Address in the Wi-Fi settings of your iPhone. I'm not sure if iPhone can do that.

if he has a vpn on any of his devices the family controls like wifi blocking, internet blocking via ethernet and website visiting such as adult sites ect will not be blocked.
My 13 Yr old son had figured this out within the first Few weeks of me getting my tp link router and I couldn't understand how he was still accessing manually blocked sites ( you only get 32 I beleive) and getting passed the time restrictions that had been set.
All your child has to do is have it activated and it will bypass the family profile controls.
My advice is to check their phone for a vpn,
Uninstall it if there is one and on the family profile page of theirs enter in on the blocker site vpn . com as this should block all the Web pages that contain the words vpn . Com. This should then stop them being able to access any vpn websites in turn not being able to activate any website based vpn.
Not sure how you go about being able to block apps from being installed on iphones but I'm pretty sure there would be a way.
