I purchased the Netgear R7800 wireless router (a premium piece of hardware to replace my R7000) but need assistance enabling and using the parental controls. Been reading through the forums but most threads are out of date with inaccurate information with solutions that are no longer relavent.

Requesting some assistance for possible paths forward. This router is barely 1.5 years old and seems to have fallen through the crack not receiving updates from Netgear and losing the basic but necessary parental controls required for those, like me, with kids.

Thanks for sharing that link but what i'm looking for is updated Netgear documentation on how to set up the Live Parental Controls on the R7800. All existing documentation is outdated and references discontinued apps or processes that don't work anymore. OpenDNS site is good for setting up the DNS account but I see no instructions for 'enabling' the parental controls on the R7800.

Free or not, I just want a version that will work with my R7800 router - and I'm fine paying for a service. This seems to be the router that fell through the cracks (no circle support and removing all the apps to setup the live parental control setup). Forced to migrate from Genie smartphone app to Nighthawk app but parental controls being removed. Genie Desktop version being removed from the download/supports sites unless finding links from other country landing pages and no more updates/security patches for almost 3 years (Genie).

All that aside, I did get Genie Desktop app downloaded but was having issues getting it to enable parental controls on the R7800. Through the Genie app I logged into my router by specifying the IP but when later learned you need to be either be hardwired or connected to its wireless interface (not that of a separate AP on the same network) in order for the Genie app to actually enable the parental controls. When I logged into my OpenDNS account I noticed that it both my R7800 router and AP were registered as devices because Genie was picking up the wrong MAC addresses to submit through and therefore not applying the rules correctly to the right device.

Would also be very interested to know what this 3rd parental control option is that will soon be release and whether or not the R7800 will be one of the supported devices. Again, I have no problem paying but Circle isn't an option on R7800 so I'm currently stuck trying to use the older LPC solution with no smartphone management support which by today's standards is a must.

Even if you've talked to your kids about screen-time limits and responsible online behavior, it's still really tough to manage what they do when you're not there (and even when you are). Parental controls can support you in your efforts to keep your kids' internet experiences safe, fun, and productive. They work best when used openly and honestly in partnership with your kids.

Figuring out what kind of parental control is best is entirely based on your own family's needs. Some families can get by with simple, free browser settings to filter inappropriate content. Some families need help clamping down on screen time. Some folks are cool with spot-checks on their kids' devices. Wherever you are in your search, this guide can help you make sense of the wide array of options for managing your family's devices.

Block websites and filter content. If you want to prevent access to specific websites and limit your kid's exposure to inappropriate content such as mature games or porn, you can use the parental controls that are built into your device's operating system. Every major operating system -- Microsoft's Windows, Apple's Mac OS, and even Amazon's Fire -- offers settings to keep kids from accessing stuff you don't want them to see. To get the benefits, you need to use the most updated version of the operating system, and each user has to log in under his or her profile. The settings apply globally to everything the computer accesses. Each works differently and has its own pros and cons. This is the best solution if your kids are younger and are primarily using a home device. Check out each one's features: Microsoft, Apple, Amazon.

Block websites, filter content, impose time limits, see what my kids are doing. A full-featured, third-party parental control service such as Bark, Qustodio or NetNanny will give you a lot of control over all of your kid's devices (the ones they use at home as well as their phones). These can be pricey (especially if you have several kids to monitor), but the cost includes constant device monitoring, offering you visibility into how kids are using their devices. These parental controls can only keep track of accounts that they know your kid is using, and for some apps, you'll need your kid's password in order to monitor activity. If your kid creates a brand-new profile on Instagram using a friend's computer without telling you, for example, the parental controls won't cover that account.

Manage all devices on the network, limit screen time, filter content, turn off Wi-Fi. There are both hardware and software solutions to control your home network and your home Wi-Fi. A popular one is OpenDNS, a download that works with your existing router (the device that brings the internet into your home) to filter internet content. Some internet service providers such as Comcast and Verizon offer parental control features that apply to all devices on the network, too. Network solutions can work for families with kids of different ages; however, mucking around in your network and Wi-Fi settings can be challenging, and the controls may not apply when kids are on a different network.

Yes, kids can undo parental controls. In fact, the directions on how to get around them are easily available on the internet. Depending on your software, you may get a notification that the parental control was breached -- or not. Kids can figure out all sorts of ingenious methods to keep doing what they want to be doing -- talking to friends, staying up late playing Fortnite, and watching videos you don't want them to see. If you notice something fishy such as a steep drop-off in your parental control notifications, Wi-Fi or data activity after you've turned off the network, or anything else that indicates the parental control isn't working the way it's supposed to, your kid may have figured out how to get around it. It could be for another reason, though, since parental controls can be affected by system updates, power outages, and other technical issues.

It really depends on the type of controls you install and the devices you have. Some parental controls can be installed without your kids knowing, but Common Sense Media doesn't recommend it (unless you have a really serious issue with your kid and you need to monitor discreetly). In fact, be cautious with companies that promise covert monitoring, as they tend to prey on parents' fears. Parental control companies that encourage open dialogue will most likely be more helpful anyway, because at some point you'll need to discuss what you find. And that's a lot easier to do if your kid already knows you're monitoring them. If you decide to use parental controls, talk to your kids about why you're using them (to help keep them safe) and how your ultimate goal is for them to learn how to interact online responsibly and regulate their own usage independently.

You can set parental controls on almost all mobile devices your child uses, including smartphones and tablets. Mobile phone service providers have different options for controlling privacy and usage, filtering content as well as location and monitoring settings.

As a PCMag security analyst, I report on security solutions such as password managers and parental control software, as well as privacy tools such as VPNs. Each week I send out the SecurityWatch newsletter filled with online security news and tips for keeping you and your family safe on the internet.

For these reasons, we no longer assign ratings to third-party parental control products. Instead, we recommend checking out native OS apps, such as Apple's Screen Time, Google's Family Link, and Microsoft's Family Safety for comprehensive, free child-monitoring software. We also recommend enabling the built-in parental control features within gaming and chat apps with your child's consent. 006ab0faaa
