Can Devices Be Blocked Between Certain Times Of Day

Is there a way devices on the network can be blocked between certain times of day?

 

eg:

Mobile phone blocked between 11.00pm and 8.00am

Game Console blocked between 10.30pm and 9.00am

 

Unless I have missed something, I have had a look around but not seen anything in my account or Now Hub Two login

 

Thanks

Look for the sort of router facilities described in this article:-

The Now Help is quite a fruitful source of information, so I hope you have used, or will use, this in your quest,

 

The Now router is pretty limited for these things, and Now don’t make it easy to replace it with a more capable one, but you could follow the link there for the Circle Home Plus and its competitors.

 

If you shan’t want to use the internet yourself between those hours, consider a timer switch to power down the router.

 

If all else fails, other broadband providers supply, or at least let you use, more capable routers,

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it.
Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now.
That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.

For the moment I have gone down the Firewall/IP4 settings route in the Now Hub Two

 

All devices are now blocked at 11pm until 7am
