the snudge Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Basically when the mother in law and father in law come to stay (they live up north) they hog the fucking wifi. Can I block their devices from connecting to my wifi? Or shut them down when they do connect? Im shite at computers generally...any advice would be great.

Gaz Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Change the password to something else. Maybe "stophoggingmywifiyoucunts". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Change the name of the network, and just tell them the router's broken and you've ordered a new one.

Browni Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Another option is to hide the network name (after changing it of course!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 You can also set an access list based on the MAC address of every device. If your not on the list, you're not hogging the WiFi. That way you could tell them the password and it still wouldn't work.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was either that or the dugs eyedrops in their coffee Will you not be busted when they visit and you're merrily tapping away on your mobile/laptop/tablet or whatever? Unless you do without for the duration of their visit in which case it defeats the purpose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuxace chap what's the problem with visitors using your wifi/router? "The fuckin teuchter in-laws comin doon here and stealing oor bandwidth"? IMO the last thing you need is advice about technology.
