Hi All, First post here.
I just upgraded my 655 A2 from firmware 1.21 to 1.34.
<Short aside rant> I saved my configuration, but 1.34 wouldn't reload it after the firmware update - just locked up. Had to hard-reset and reconfigure everything again manually. </Short aside rant>
In the old firmware version (1.21) you could set up a few website filters, then override them in Access Control for particular MACs by adding a "log web access only" policy. You can then make the website filters effective for everyone else by adding a "Block Some Access" policy for "Other Machines".
That doesn't work in 1.34. It applies the website filters to MACs that have a "Log Web Access Only" policy (and blocks access to any site listed in the filters).
After playing around with a few other things, I tried enabling SecureSpot - and that made the Access Control Policies and Website Filters play nicely together (it worked). The problem is, I don't want to enable SecureSpot just to have the Access Control work properly.
Any suggestions?

Known issue for years (and rather logical when new sdk's are implemented)
As to your issue:
Have you tested this thoroughly (without using SecureSpot)?
