Limit access to internet to specific MAC addresses on the LAN

I spend half an hour to write something, just to waste everything after changing the kind of text format from RTF to HTML. :-( How can I setup a time delimited access to some machines on the LAN limi...

Most NETGEAR routers are supporting that feature. I suggest R7000 or higher model.

I see in the Netgear Genie information that we can control the time frame where a device connects (e.g. between 4pm and 8pm). Is it also possible to say Maximum 2h of connection between 4pm and 8pm? 

 

I was thinking of the R6250 as I might not need something for gaming, just familly devices. WDYT?

    pados75 please read my initial response. It is how you configure the settings to setup scheduling and blocking access to a specific IP

    But the way you sugest you couldn't made a cumulative time limit, just a time frame interval.

    mitja Since this was your post from 6 years ago, I assume you didn't find solutions for cumulative time limit?

    mitja yes you can only set timeframe... even in business NETGEAR firewall you can only set time frame. 

    here's the home router schedule looks like:

    here's the business router:

    pados75No, it was a post from a month ago. 6 years ago the firmware of the modem / router works the way I want. Setting a cumulative time was a no brain operation.
