Whilst waiting for the fix you can manually set the DNS of problem devices to use Cloudflare DNS.  1.1.1.3 and 1.0.0.3. These are Adult and Malware filtering DNS severs

Hi @Tuffymw 

Thanks for coming back to the thread. Sorry to hear it's not working. Do you have any active VPN's?

[Tuffymw]

Hi, John,

Thanks for your message.

I don’t install vpn for the device. Sometimes I found some website can be blocked but sometimes I found can’t be blocked. 

it’s so annoying!

Thanks for getting back to us @Tuffymw 

Do you find that this happens on just the one device or is it multiple devices?

Ensure that your browsers are all up-to-date as well and try a 60 second pin hole reset on the router. This will revert any customisations back to factory settings and full update the router with firmware/software updates. Please do not reboot the router whilst it is completing the pin hole request.
