Not to mix in (not having a Netgear router), but I wonder if perhaps the reason you are not seeing the ability to block IPs (which several people have said exists) is because you have not enabled it by setting a schedule: > John Jolet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes (twice): >>> >>>> look at the schedule setups. set them up only to be able to >>>> access the internet for, say a second on sunday at 3 am, and >>>> not for the rest of the time.... >>> >> >> here. you set a schedule, then limit certain ip addresses As I said, I'm not familiar with this router, but I am familiar with the concept of options not becoming enable-able (and often even visible) until some precondition has been met (in this case setting a schedule). Certainly it would not seem logical for a high-end router *not* to be able to block IPs (and fairly thoroughly), especially if lower-end models of the same brand are capable of doing so; certainly it seems possible that such a device would not be "interested" in knowing what you want it to do (ip blocks) if it didn't have a category under which to perform the series of actions (the schedule).
