Hi,
I was wondering if there is a program (preferably free!!) that allows me to list who/what is using my wifi and then block them temporally, for example if the kids dont do as there told i can withhold wifi without blocking it for everyone.
Cheers!

there are seldom technical solutions to people problems

if the kids won't do what they are told, smash their device into a bazillion pieces so they learn the lesson

In this case, a layer 8 solution is the most cost effective method!
