How to block JUST outgoing traffic from device?
The device manager allows me to block all traffic on a device. I want to just disable all outgoing traffic, not incoming traffic. Where is the option for this? Thanks.

Yes, I *know* it isn't complicated. I searched all terms like "block" and searched verbatim for the term that the post specifically asked me to look for. I am just relaying to you that the recommended search term yielded zero results. I still don't know how to just block outgoing traffic from my device.
I guess I will keep doing research on my own. This router is firmware limited for my use.
