Block websites NETGEAR CG3000 V2 Optus from devicehelp.optus.com.au
But it is not working! I came across many similar posts on the Netgear community forum, and the accepted solution seems to be that "a router (Netgear or not) cannot block websites that use HTTPS protocol, since the website URL is encrypted". If blocking specific web sites is a feature you need to have, you will have to go through one of the DNS services @FURRYe38 mentioned above
Block websites NETGEAR CG3000 V2 Optus
There is no way to block the URL when it can't view it I cleared my cache, restarted my browser and went to the "blocked" sites to discover they are, in fact, not blocked. But it is not working!

My device is blocked NETGEAR Communities. To block Internet sites on your NETGEAR router from the router web interface: Launch a web browser from a device that is connected to your router's network I have a Nighthawk X3S R7800 and I've followed the instructions to block a site both within the router admin site and the OpenDNS site blacklist.
Netgear Genie not working NETGEAR Communities. Thought maybe I could set up a "Static Route" to block access to/from 222.222.255.255 but again it only allowed internal LAN IP addresses. This is because HTTPS websites are encrypted, so the router will not be able to see their URL
