    Parental Controls Does Not Work

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased the product for one purpose and one purpose only. The parental controls and it did not work as advertised. Actually it did not work at all. The router would not login to the open dns site. Performed some research and discovered it is a known issue. The issue was reported over a year ago and still has not been resolved. If a company has been aware of an issue for over a year and has not resolved it yet then they need to remove the non working option from their advertising. I can only imagine what other options are not working as advertised. I also noticed that the wifi was not as reliable as the wifi router provided by my cable company. The day I installed it my wife started complaining about the wifi. Not a good sign. I decided to re-install my old router return the new one and go back to the drawing board. Will definitely not be wasting my time with a consumer router again. Will have to bite the bullet and get a commercial product.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
