Title: Restrict access from specific devices?
Post by: Nixtalis on November 18, 2012, 03:12:44 PM

How can I restrict wireless access to specific devices? Ideally, I would like to turn the access off and on to restrict my children's usage when we're not around or when they try to sneak on during the night.

Thanks for any info.

Need to set up scheduling and access control rules for time frames when the devices should be online.

To set up scheduling:
1. Reserve device IP addresses ON the router under Setup/Networking.
2. Set up a schedule under Tools/Schedule on the routers web page. Customize your dates and times here.
3. Use Access Control under Advanced to apply the customized schedule to a policy and to the PC(s) desired to be controlled.

It isn't just specific times that I'd like to control. I'd like to be able to remove access manually. I found a solution in another thread where I reserved his device and then turned on MAC filtering, but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Does the scheduling work at all?

Apparently, my son was playing Minecraft offline, so when I thought it wasn't working, in actually was. Thanks!

Hehe, had you fooled huh? Well, we can't restrict that I guess huh?  ::) ::)
Glad it's working.

Enjoy.
