Cox Support Forum Moderator It is possible... but you need a router with "parental control" features. There are many to choose from. First, you need to consider exactly what you want to accomplish. For example,
- Do you want to simply see a report of web addresses the child as accessed?
- Do you want to block specific web addresses?
- Do you want to monitor and limit the amount of time spent using the wifi?
- etc, etc, etc
There are many sites comparing and testing routers w/ parental control features. You can find them easily with a Google search.
I highly recommend this product because I use it myself ...
Depending on the size of your home and your needs, you can get a router for $99.
