No. Currently the router does not log visited sites. The interim solution is to use the reporting tools provided by OpenDNS Home. Granted that OpenDNS reports activities from your home network, but if you configure the router to use OpenDNS for kid’s devices only, then all activities reported by OpenDNS are from kid’s devices.

@abe Sorry about that. Please send email to [email protected]. We’ll take care of it.

You’ll need to set up port forwarding.

Assume that the pcWRT router WAN side IP address is 192.168.101.100. And the printer IP address is: 192.168.102.200, printer port is 9100.

If you haven’t done it already, give the printer a name on the pcWRT router, for example, click the printer hostname on the Status page and name it printer.lan. The hostname should display in blue after you saved a name for the printer.

Next, go to the Network Settings page. In the Port Forwards section, click Add. Enter these values in the popup:
1. Name: Printer port forward (or anything meaningful)
2. Protocol: tcp
3. External Port: 9100
4. Internal Address: pick the printer (192.168.102.200)
5. Internal Port: 9100

Click OK, then Save.

On your PC, configure the printer to use the pcWRT router IP address (192.168.101.100) and port 9100.

BTW, if you had YouTube restricted mode turned on, it becomes “moderate restricted mode” after the update.

@gangwang We added YouTube moderate restricted mode to update v1.21.5. Please update and check it out. And thanks for the suggestion!

@RichardGV On what device is he running the VPN client?

[support]

@RichardGV Thanks for the suggestion! We are adding more testing scenarios to our current test suite, and hopefully situations like this can be eliminated in the future. We are also developing a function so that you can roll back to a previous version.

For now, please update to v1.21.5 and see if the problem is fixed. Thanks!

@gangwang Thank you so much for the suggestion! We’ll look into this.

Thanks for the info. You probably need to set up port forwarding. Take a look at the Status page first. Do you see the DirecTV receiver and the GenieGO in the “Connected Devices” section? If not, click the “refresh” icon to the right of the “Connected Devices” label.

If you see the devices and the hostnames are displayed in gray, click on the hostname and then click Save in the popup. The hostnames should turn blue after you do that.

Go to the Network Settings page. In the Port Forwards section, click Add. Repeat these steps for ports 8082, 8083 & 1701:
1. In the Name field enter GenieGo 8082
2. In the Protocol dropdown, pick tcp.
3. External port: enter 8082
4. Internal Address: pick the GenieGO device
5. Internal port: enter 8082
6. Click OK to dismiss the dialog.

Click Save to save the port forwarding settings.

@gangwang When you have no Internet, can you log on the pcWRT console? Does the Status page show Internet up or down?

Also, do you have a need to run two WiFi signals? If not, it is advisable to turn off the AT&T WiFi, because two WiFi signals might cause RF interference and degrade network performance. If you do need two WiFi signals, check that the channels don’t overlap (4 channels apart is a safe bet).

@zoonooz Can you let us know who’s your ISP and how the GenieGo, DVR, laptop are connected? BTW, the pcWRT router does not block any ports.

[support]

@top2mujets Please update to v1.21.4. This update should have solved the problem.

[support]

@Magicdancingblade You can block hangouts.google.com and hangout.google.com.

Thanks for the detailed info. We might be able to make this work. Stay tuned.

So, if you enable parental control for the router, create a profile with parental control off, then put the laptop in that profile, it works. But as soon as you enable parental control for that profile, with all other options (safe search, block VPN etc.) off, and with no calendars created, you cannot see any web sites. Right? What’s displayed in the web page?

Also, do you know what Barracuda technology it’s using? I guess there’s a Barracuda Web Security Agent (WSA) installed on the laptop. Is it using the Web Security Gateway or Web Security Service?
