Hello,
I have an Asus RT-AC5300 with DD-WRT installed in it (recent 2018 firmware). Everything works great but for some reason I can't get the Access Restrictions to work well (primarily to block internet access ). Have not tried setting these up by IP address as they change often. I set up to 10 rules and include all MAC addresses I want to block along with the specific times but no success. I searched the DD-WRT Wiki and forums and it appears that others have experienced similar issues. All of the clients I want to block are wireless (kids iPads
) and there is some discussion out there that Access Restrictions work well only with wired clients. It appears that some folks have been successful at developing various script commands to get these to work.
Do any of you have any suggestions on how to make these restrictions work?
Thank you so much in advance!!
