Block internet access from specific device while keeping the device connected to the router
Good day,
I am trying to achieve the same as this post:
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/172654
I want to block the internet access from a specific device while keeping this device connected to the router so other local devices can communicate with it.
- Bedtime mode from 1am to 1am doesn't work.
- Blocking internet access via parental controls will only work for 1 day. It resets the next day.
- Sadly I can't (speed)limit the bandwith to 0kbps. The minimum is 1kbps for some reason.
I really hope someone can help me with this, thanks in advance!

Hi@EnricoR,
Thank you for reporting your need to our community.
For your need, I think you can try to set up Access Control with Deny list: Go to Advanced > Security > Access Control. Select Deny list as current mode.
If you don’t know how to log in to web-interface of router, please refer to How do I log into the web-based Utility (Management Page) of TP-Link wireless router?
If you have any update, feel free to reply here.

Hi Joseph,
Thank you so much for your response.
This won't work, since it will simply disconnect the selected device from the entire network.
I still need the device to connect to the local network.
Kind regards,
Enrico

This was possible with the Access Control for the Old Green UI - details.
As you noted, the new GUI Access Control will simply allow/deny the device access to the router's network.
I've managed to achieve that in the new logo GUI on Archer C64 with the Parental Controls - that's your best bet.

I have to reproduce the steps but in general, when configured time to be online is 0, a warning pops up and warns that the devices won't have internet access at all and you just have to confirm.
