Ok ... I could have sworn the Z100G would allow you to limit internet access to scheduled blocks of time ... but now I can't find that feature.

Was I dreaming?

Thanks,
Jim

They hide it pretty well.

Create a rule -
Security / Rules / Add Rule

On the third screen or so - click on Advanced Settings and it gives the Time options.

The problem with that sceduled time setting is if an active browser window isn't closed or changed the Z100G will not shut the connection down. In other words it will not shut down all active connections. It did not take my kids long to figure this out with Runescape, instant messenger etc. as long as they didn't shut the browser and try and reconnect they could blow as far past the Z100G shut-off time as they wanted. So I bought an electronic timer that shuts off the DSL box the Z100G is plugged into at whatever time we want. You can program 14 on-off pairs per day into that thing but it's set up to turn on at 0600 and turn off at 2145 right now. Plus it has a button to turn it on and off manually.
