Can't you use MAC Address filtering?

Stop the DHCP service and give your self a static i.p address on a weird range that he wont guess

I don't think so.

Extortion is the way forward in your case, SetH. Make him give you money towards internet usage...

i knew id get asked that, basically my brother is a freeloader or a leach if you like.

he never asked, just got a cat 5 and plugs into my router in the hallway then surfs for like 10 hours, he doesnt pay a penny, i pay all the bills for it, my router etc etc.

so no way of locking it down then?

Why don't you want him to use it, if you don't mind me asking?

I just had a look on my Netgear router settings I can't find a way of blocking ethernet connections in the setup...

right i have managed to lock down the wireless on my netgear router.

however this doesnt stop my brother walking up to it and plugging a cat 5 lead into it for his laptop. Cant see how i can bar physical connections to the router though?

help?
