Model: Archer C20

Firmware Version: 0.9.1 4.16 v0001.0

Hello,

I have this problem with our teenager who has a tablet and we can't seem to be able to restrict her internet access during the night.

I tried to use the access control section where I could set it up as a "white list" and so only white listed devices could go through. The limitations with this method is that we have to white list ever single device in the house and we have a lot. After registering most of them, the device gives an error code saying it has too many entries. And so we cannot use this method.

 

What else can we do? If we setup the black list way, her device simply changes the MAC address and it's not filtered out anymore.

Any advice on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Alexandre

If that is the case, there is no other workaround to solve it.
