    Hi bob1057,

     

    Welcome to our community!

     

    As per checking in here that you wanted to block a group of mac address based on a schedule. May I know if you just wanted to block some websites, like web filtering or you just wanted those mac address not to access the internet anymore?

     

    Regards,

        bob1057,

         

        I don't think that FVS318N has that kind of feature that blocks the MAC address by schedule.
