1271227 2012-04-22 08:59:00 Hi,
I have one of these teenage kids that have their computer on all the time and secretly after they go to bed use Facebook etc again.
I would love a piece of software that just gives me control over the computers on our wireless network and gives me the ability to throw one of the computers (hers) off the network.

What programs are available for this ?

thanks

There are also parental controls on the mac, but that will depend how old and savvy your daughter is

1271234 2012-04-22 09:25:00 See if theres a block site / block domain option in the router, If there is, add youtube to it. Then save / reboot the router. Then try going there and see if it times out. If it does, its blocked. It maybe under parental control? on some routers. Or install teamviewer. Then send the ID and pw it gives you to me in a PM. And I can do it from here Speedy Gonzales (78)

1271236 2012-04-22 09:40:00 Nah! take the whole thing off her if its hers, and change the password if it is a family computer. Allow her back on after a short time and promise her next time she misbehaves the time off doubles and every time after that. Keep your word don't give in. Years ago my son was banned from TV for a week, consequently after getting caught cheating a few times the prospect of 6months without TV got a result. He turned out good. PPp (9511)
