What are Deco’s Parental Controls?

Parental Controls allow you to filter online content for your children, control when they can access the internet, restrict the total time they spend online each day and track the websites they visit and apps they use.

NOTE:

1. Please make sure the Private MAC Address is disabled on your clients, otherwise, the parental control may not take effect.

2. Some features in the Parental Control may vary by model.
