Thanks for taking time to respond. I have decided to assign ip ranges to each family members devices through the router and then apply a sleep schedule to turn off the internet for the kids devices. Since I have several kids each having several devices I will reserve collecting their gadgets for when they are grounded (although they will say they still need their laptop for homework and then do everything but).
I set up a sleep schedule for an ip address range through the router. Can I also block internet access for a different ip address range at the same time? When I try to do this through the Security, Block Services tab it seems that only one can be applied at at time. Does this mean that when I apply a rule all other rules are erased/replaced? If not, where could I go to see all the rules that are currently in effect?
