How do you do that thing where you turn off internet access at certain times?.

I'm sure I've seen people on here saying they do it to prevent DC using gadgets at night.

Is it possible to make the broadband unavailable between certain times?

If so, how?

Turn the router off?

Parental Controls, either on your router (depending on model) or the operating system of the device they use.

No, mustget, it's far too easy to turn back on.

Thanks Three quarters, will have a look.

My DP has set our router up so it has two networks - one that we have our phones connected to as we have no mobile signal at home and have a box that provides a phone signal over wifi, and the other is set up as a guest network that can be turned on and off by signing into the router. We can also see a list of attached devices and can turn them off individually too which is helpful as my eldest DS uses a wired connection for his PC.
