if parental controls has filters setup for devices in time scheduling section .... even when the feature is switched off .... a device still shows up as blocked from internet access in the Network Map list.
never been able to figure out the aweful layout of how Parental Controls/Time Scheduling works and the confusing options of 'Time' 'Block' 'Disable', the latter 2 sound like the same effect, but not sure about that. Either way, whichever one is chosen, if the main toggle is turned on it doesn't matter whether the toggle for each specific device rule is on or off - the device is blocked from internet access.
going over to Network Map, clicking on the device and toggling OFF 'Block Internet Access' will not bring the device back online, because of some issue interpreting the Parental Controls.
bug or otherwise, posting it here to make merlin aware.
i just want a quick and easy way to get into the router and shut off internet access to specific devices in my LAN. I have some internet binging issues i need to control at home.
