Cable Internet access limiting
Dear All,

Ok, i'm gonna make it and quick and easy for you guys,here.

My internet connection is Cable, I'm using window XP of course. What i want is, limiting internet access time for my sister. Say i want her to access only from 8pm to 9pm and other time i can just enter some kinda code to make a free access for myself. IS there any program out there which capable of doing this?

Thanks.

i think this is what your looking for its called Broadband internet lock security
it can Disconnect your PC from your broadband Internet connection manually or automatically. Set session time limits. Further restrict access with password protection. the only problem is it is demo but you might be able to by the licence for the full version even give the demo a go,The link to the program can be found here http://www.programurl.com/software/disconnect.htm and scroll down untill you find Broadband internet lock security

The only real way to do this is with a broadband router that has a scheduling feature, most newer routers will have that capability.

hi guys, thanks for the suggesstions, well i dont know if i gave u the correct information. My internet connection doesn't have rounter or anything, there's just this modem connected to optical cable then the modem connected to my PC with RJ45.

I guess imma try the program that you told me, Router.

Please ..if there's anything u guys think i should know, drop me some lines here.

Thanks
