How to force parental controls with MAC address changes?
Anyone know if they have fixed the MAC address problem and forcing a default profile yet? Last time I used this product, IOS and Android negated all the parental controls (rolling mac addresses). A simple "deny all" without a profile would fix this.
The marketing on this product is heavy on "Parental Controls", but when IOS and Android easily get around the filters with their default settings I feel the marketing is misleading.
I want to give my kids and their friends access to wifi, but I want to filter some of the nonsense. Anyone have a solution that works?

Hello,
Currently there is not a way to do this with the eero system. However, having a profile that all new devices are assigned to as they connect to the network is a good idea. If you have time, and are willing, please email this to support@eero.com as a feature request and we will get this escalated for review and consideration.
Thank you,
James

Hey James. Thanks for the note. I did go down that road a few months back. I was hoping something had changed by now. It seems like a pretty big flaw to me.
I am still searching for a good solution. I liked everything about the product, but if IOS & Android default configurations defeat the protections your device provides...its not much more than just another mesh device. Sorry man. I will check back in a few more months.
