Hi,

 

From my internet provider i have an internet router of cource behind it i have installed deco m3 triple set. Tried to set up in router modus the set for perental control but it does not work sometimes when blocking a website it is blocked but i cannot block a device it goes trough the blocking in de deco.

 

Is it possible that my internet router has to be set up in antoher modus.

If device uses "MAC address randomization" (Google it), that device will bypass Deco parental controls. Currently, there is no way to deal with this in Deco. If you need working parental controls with whitelist, you should look for a different brand of WiFi mesh.

  @mlcomputers Sometimes you need to block more than one website/IP.

 

For example: YouTube

 

www.youtube.com

youtube.com

youtubei.googleapis.com
youtube-ui.google.com
m.youtube.com

 

In my instance on a TV,  i needed the first two, and if i didn't have both they bypass.
