KIDS Safe settings do not work

  1. I have fibre: TalkTalk sent me an eero 6 router which is incompatible, it is not plugged in to my ONT.
  2. I have made the online settings to kids safe to stop p*rn being viewed and have enabled a HOMEWORK period
  3. I received an email saying the settings were accepted by TALKTALK
  4. I checked the settings online and they are correct
  5. The KIDSAFE service does not work at all in any respect. My children can still see p*rn. It is UNSAFE.
  6. I have turned off the fibre connection for 30 minutes
  7. I have cleared caches on all devices (not that it will ever make any difference to an external network setting)
  8. I have restarted all devices numerous time.

Please do not post replies asking me to make changes to my PC. this is a network-level problem that TALKTALK need to resolve. It has nothing to do with my devices in my house.

 

thank you

NOT RESOLVED

 

I want kidsafe to work

kidsafe does not work

 

i did not give you permission to disable kidssafe on my account. I never asked for that

 

i have turned kidsafe on again

it still does not work

I received an email saying they were enabled but the blocking on your server does not work.

 

i can access sites like twitch.tv. i do not want to access that site. i want to exclude access

=> my settings are attached in a png, as you can see they are correct <=

 

I do not want to use an EERO router it conflicts with my home network

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NO MORE COMMENTS ON THIS THREAD ABOUT THE EERO ROUTER - i do not use it

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

talktalk: you advised there is a bug which stops KIDSSAFE working when your system recognises an EERO router was sent. That is highly doubtful!! please rectify the supposed bug and report on progress

If it helps I just sussed it out 

 

the content filter options on the eero router are where you I’ve to now setup rules for your children 

 

make a profile then you can set up what you want to block

 

a faff but it’s very bad talktalk did not tell people

Hi smarkgee_, when the system sees you were sent an eero it prevents HomeSafe from working. I've sent this over to a team who are investigating this issue for me. I'll post back once I have heard back from them.

Hi smarkgee_, I've just turned off kidsafe in your account. Are you still unable to access the sites?
