My kids PC's access the internet through a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 wireless router. I'd like to be able to set a time limit on when they can use the internet. I have the router set up with a MAC filter but I don't see any way I can set a window for when each PC is allowed to use the internet.
I did a search of the archives and I saw some similar requests were using software like 'net nanny', etc... I was wondering if I could do it with my router and / or if flashing my router with a different firmware would allow features like I am looking for. Nothing I can find seems to answer my question. I just want to be able to turn off internet access for a certain time period (maybe 11pm to 7am).
Any ideas?
-As always, Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Ken
BTW: As a parent, of course if I could find a free option, I'd be willing to have less features then if I have to pay for something.
