@rjager That’s a valid concern. If WiFi is the bottleneck, then switching to a dual band router will help. But make sure your devices can take advantage of the 5GHz band. In that case you can turn off the WiFi on the Airport and use the WiFi on the dual band.

Glad it worked out!

You need to white list gstatic.com also.

Sure. Will create a post soon.

You may want to set the pcWRT as a DMZ host in the Arris router. The option is usually available under the Firewall menu.

Some routers let you specify the DMZ host by MAC address. Others ask for an IP address. For the latter, you need to assign a static IP address to the pcWRT, then enter that IP address for the DMZ.

One more question. Is the pcWRT connected to a modem directly or through a modem/router combo as those provided by AT&T uverse and FiOS?

Are they playing in the same room or each playing from their own homes?

Yes, more are coming. Our own router should be available before the end of Feb.

Thanks for following up on this topic. That’s a good suggestion, and we’ll make it available. Currently we are busy with the remote control feature. Should be able to work this in after that.

First of all, you need to determine if that’s a problem with Internet connection overall, or related to parental control in particular. It would be helpful if you have a profile with parental control turned off. If you switch to that profile and the problem goes away, then the problem was caused by parental control.

It it’s a general connection problem, then you may try rebooting the router.

If it’s a problem caused by parental control, then it might be related to your switching the computer between profiles.

Please let us know which is the case and we’ll go from there. Thanks!

Oops, can’t believe we missed this one. Yes, VPN is planned. And should be available in a couple of months.

I think for Hulu and HBOgo you can block Hulu.com & hbogo.com.

But for Amazon video, if you don’t want to block the shopping site at the same time, could be challenging. Maybe you can try the advice from this link for a start: https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/239524908-Blocking-Amazon-video

@jblbbj Did you enable UPnP on the router? You might want to try that if not.

@ConcernedMom We should have replenishment in a couple of weeks.
