+1 for Ubiqity kit. I have a couple of their access points, and the management tools are awesome.

Ubiquiti AmplifiHD allows you to stop the internet to specific devices on demand or on a schedule you can also assign several devices to a user and stop them all at once. all done from user friendly app on your phone, both locally and remotely.

No need.

I understand there are already plenty of such images already there

The lad's increased the human to sheep ratio to get his dad ostracized by his local community.

Not as many as on cojak's, NAT's and WTFH's computers. Before they "volunteered" to be CUK mods.....

And with Aspergers, is probably hacking into PC's CUK account now. Before planting incriminating images on Dad's computer.....

Don't tell them that you're a consultant / contractor / freelancer / independent etc etc, though or they won't give you one.

Mine is unplugged these days anyway since I moved to Velop.

I’ll take it off your hands if it’s going spare

If he's got a phone, surely that will be able to connect to the internet without WiFi anyway?

Ideal would be a way to disable for specific devices (his pc and phone, sky maybe) or allow for specific devices and be able to turn off easily (remotely if possible).

Get on one of the Meraki webinars for a free access point, I have a group policy set up for the kids which is restricted by time and content, if they piss me off I can disable individual devices or the entire group

open up the admin page on the router.
Add scheduling rules 22:00 - 07:00 all days
Add ip address/mac address to list of blocked devices
Add what you want blocking ie ports/protocol etc

Done.

As in "parental issues"?

Nope. OCD and probably Aspergers.

Kids : We are talking to people
Friend : Not to me

Studies probably show that most adults contacting kids online aren't actually pedoes, just their parents having to use subterfuge to get a conversation out of them.

My friend(yes really!) had issues with his kids spending too much time in their room on their devices. So he turned off the router.

Kids : Router has gone off
Friend : I turned it off
Kids : Why
Friend : As you are not talking to anyone
Kids : We are talking to people
Friend : Not to me

Sure I'm not the only one with a teenage kid....

Obvious solution is change password but then thats just hassle for everyone else, sky box, etc etc.

Ideal would be a way to disable for specific devices (his pc and phone, sky maybe) or allow for specific devices and be able to turn off easily (remotely if possible).

Any such thing exists? BTW got a TP link router (to replace the bog standard bt one).

Now all I need to do is restrict sky without taking card out.

Aye. I wish nluk.

As I'm sure I've mentioned before hes got "issues" which make things more difficult anyway.
