How to restrict internet access time

[Garry S]

Hi,

We are sharing a DSL connection over the network. We got Linksys BEFRS81
router to do the job of a DHCP server and at the same time a gateway to
internet. With this kind of setup, how can I restrict internet access time
to each individual users? Say I only want user1 to access the net between
7am to 12pm. I've gone through the linksys router security features but
found nothing that could handle the said restriction.

For additional information, We got a Windows NT 4.0 Domain Server (with
static IP) & all workstations uses Windows XP Pro (dynamically obtains IP
from the Linksys router). User login is validated by the domain server.
BTW, on NT Server I could stop the user access time but that only stops the
user from accessing data from the server, internet access still allowed.

Any input is highly appreciated,

Garry

If you try a program like NetNanny it has this feature built in. You can
set times of access aswell as limitations on the content they view. You may
have to install it on each system in you network.
Hope this helps

Well.. my dinky little linksys router supports limiting time for clients... checkout the settings on your router.
