Ratings and reviews

Tried access control. Not possible to toggle between allowed urls and unrestricted access. You are supposed to enter a list of accessible urls every time you need restrictions and delete them when you don't. That alone makes the function useless. And a glitch: after entering an allowed url and deleting it the computer was denied access to the web at all. You want to open a site, put it on the allowed list. In the end I had to reset the router and set up all anew. Free testing finished. Bin it.

Not working. None of the settings work through the app. Doesn't connect. Terrible since the last update. Used to work. Now doesn't. Had to resort to the Chinese version and muddle through. Even the Chinese version, that works for settings, doesn't work for all the devices connected. It says all devices are offline.

The app is not working, it says unable to connect to router even after resetting and checking the router/internet multiple times. This has been the issue from October 2018. Such a big delay to fix issues ? Even after so many complaining the same everywhere. Bad customer service. Should've gone for others like ASUS, TPLINK, DLINK, etc even though it was a little more expensive.
