Motorola Sbg6580 Manual Pdf
does this modem/router have the capability of blocking one wi fi device? for instance, if I have 3 wi fi devices connected to the router, can I block just one of them at specific time frames? This will be used as a parental control measure to limit the use of wi fi and/or internet at late hours of the night. Thank in advance for your time. Mario B
