Block unknown devices on Deco M9 - user changes MAC address to fool parental controls
Hi all,
I've been using the Deco M9 Plus for a couple of days now and I'm very pleased with it. The wi-fi is excellent in whole our house. And especially the parental controls are very valuable too to control the extensive use of internet of some of the users.
I have a question however. Is there an option to (automatically) block unknown devices on the network? I'm familiar with the blacklist option but I wouild like to see a whitelist for devices as well. The problem is that one user in our home is smartass enough to change the MAC address of his computer each time the parental control blocks his internet. Ofcourse the Deco notifies me that a new device is noticed on the network and than I can manually block the device but is there anyway it can be done automatically?
The Deco acts like a router and is directly connected to my ISP modem.
Is there any other option to block unknown MAC addresses from the internet should there be no possibility to achieve this with the Deco?
Thanks for your replies.
