Issues with Time Scheduling...

[macster2075]

I get -sh: not found after each line.

I get -sh: not found after each line.

Sorry, just the first line. The rest is my example output

 

[macster2075]

you mean just
iptables -t nat -S PCREDIRECT?

If so, i've done that... but what am I supposed to see after?

I would have expected to see similar output to mine. Can you post a screenshot of your Parental Controls screen? Not the schedule that you’ve already shared, but the screen before with the client list.

This one?

Click the Time Scheduling button.

here..

The first option that reads Disable must be changed to Time as @L&LD mentioned earlier.

 

[macster2075]

yes.. I know.. It's disabled so I can use the internet lol

 

[dave14305]

yes.. I know.. It's disabled so I can use the internet lol

How about set it to Time, Apply, run the iptables command, change it back to Disable and post the new iptables output.

What I would recommend is:

1. Enable your time schedule.
2. Confirm your PC still has IP 192.168.1.251
3. Run:
   iptables -t nat -L PCREDIRECT -v
4. Browse a website from the device
5. Run:
   iptables -t nat -L PCREDIRECT -v
6. Post both outputs to see which line had a packet/bytes increase.

After this, I’m tagging out.

I think I found what the issue was.... so, it happens I had NAT acceleration to AUTO. Once I disabled it, it seems to be working. I really do not remember having to disable NAT acceleration.
Is that an important feature?

 

[macster2075]

It also says if NAT acceleration is set to auto, it will be disabled once the other features are enabled... so I guess it was not being disabled when Time Scheduling was ON.

My NAT Acceleration is also Auto, but my tests were successful.

 

[macster2075]

Then I guess my router went bad somehow. Can I do factory reset pressing the button on the back of the router?
I think I've read that you don't do that on this router, but I am not sure.

 

[macster2075]

I toggle the NAT acceleration settings from auto to off and back to auto.. and now it seems to have fixed it... Now it can be set to Auto and Time Scheduling is working.
I'm thinking that maybe the factory resets are not completely wiping out some settings and it maybe creating issues.

Dave, as always.. thank you so much for your help.. I really appreciate you taking the time.
