Hello, is it a way to manage the parental control on a device with changing mac address? The device connect as a new device (since the mac address is new) and it seems that it is the mac address that is linked to the user? 

The result, after 60min of connexion on his computer, my son's account is still showing 0min!!!

Generally speaking, the MAC address of a device won't change; 

 

Below is the instruction to setup parental control:

What do you mean by mention that your son's account is still showing 0min after 60mins of connection? Where did you see this message? Please show us a screenshot of it. 

 

Good day.
