Your router will most likely have that function [/quote]

As above can be done on some routers. Some basic info. I guess you want something like the below?

Internet Access Tip
 
Suppose you know someone whose kids spend too much time on the Internet playing, for example, World of Warcraft. The question is, “How can I limit Internet access for particular computers?” Sure, you could simply reason with the kids and command their respect, but how cool is that?

If you use a Linksys wireless broadband router, there’s a way. In the setup area of the router, select the tab called “Access Restrictions.” There you can create a “policy” for denying or allowing Internet access to specific computers based on their MAC address.

The Linksys software enables you to setup policies according to day of the week and time. For example, allowing access all days of the week from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm for your daughter’s computer. You can also block specific sites.

Macintosh owners can get the MAC address by launching “About This Mac” in the Apple menu then clicking on “More Info...” In the “Contents” column, click on “Network” and scroll down to “Ethernet.” PC owners: you’re on your own.

	If you router doesnt support it already, you could look for 3rd party firmware thats compatible with your router that does support such a feature? If your familiar with unix and cron you could setup an iptables based rule that blocks her static ip using scripts on your router... You could setup a scheduled task on her machine that disables the network adapter at a certain time (then another to reenable?) Windows 7 as said above supports some sort of parental control thing. If all this fails, you could look for some freeware that might be able to do what your looking for? Or buy a new router. :thumbs: [Edited on 24-06-2010 by moka]
