I use OpenDNS at work and at home, and no one can bypass it as long as they're using my internet connection. I am super late to this party but here are my two cents.
UNTANGLE FIREWALL BLOCKING GUILD WARS 2 HOW TO
My worry is when they start learning how to hack past my passwords. I keep telling him I was 15 once too and he's doing a horrible job of trying to hide things.įor the last year this has been working well (and I know it's working well because I can hear the groans right on cue when their access is yanked). It only keeps the last 8 days or so, but it's handy enough for those times when I want to know why he slammed his laptop closed the instant I walked in the room. Doing it this way still gives them access to the wifi, but no internet access.Īs for content control, I have the router logging all traffic to an old desktop I saved from work with a 2TB drive. DHCP is really only used for guests and it's pretty restrictive as well. My devices (and my wife's) are also on reserved IPs and have their own policy.
UNTANGLE FIREWALL BLOCKING GUILD WARS 2 MAC
And although I REALLY miss the DD-WRT way of access control, I am able to reserve IPs for all the kids' devices by MAC addressing in the router, and I have access policies for each child. Still handy for when guests are over like you mentioned. I've got a TP Link router that also can't use DD-WRT, and 3 boys (1 of which is getting a Cisco certification at school) so I think I understand the situation.įor me, we use OpenDNS, but the oldest figured that out right away, and of course he's passed on his knowledge to the middle child. I'd like to reconfigure my home router, or build a new setup, so that the wifi is shutdown in the evening while the router stays active to serve the wired devices.Īnyone know of a consumer wireless router that would allow me to set hours of operation for the wifi? Please spare me the parenting advice - it's complicated. I have a kid that is sneaking onto the net in the middle of the night. Open DNS filters for your WAN connection. Wired connections stay up as you mentioned as they are not on a timer. Much easier than squid if you do not know how or do not what to stand one up. You can see where they are going and black list / white list as needed. You can not just kill the guest wifi without killing all wifi. Say the 2.4 goes off.it kills it for office and guest. The N900 has both 2.4 and 5.8 on the office and guest sides. I have them at the offices of several clients.
