I have an eight year old brother who surfs the internet everyday. Our router is Linksys and my mom asked me to block my brother's internet connection during weekdays. I already tried the instructions from Cisco's website but it doesn't seem to work. I wonder if I got the right setup here. I'm running out of solutions.

Hi Dear,
You should follow these instructions to allow internet on specific days, specific times.
1. Open Your Computer Browser.

3. Linksys Router authentication window will be opened.

5. LinkSys Cisco Window will be opened, Go to the tab "Access Restrictions".
