Parental Controls Device

[jl_678]

thanks for posting - yes i know some routers allow certain controls - but ive had a few and nothing seems to do a great job at all my requirements - thats why i wanted to band around an idea of whether a pine64 could connect to a pre installed router and control this kind of stuff

e.g. adding a label to a mac so that you can easily identify whose device it is
assign certain block lists or sites to specific devices
setup schedules for different devices e.g. all devices banned between 12am and 8am then device A allowed access 8-9 whilst device b allowed access 3-4 etc
the ability to disable internet completely for one or all devices

Hi,

I love this idea and have been thinking about something like this for ages.  However, I had another idea.  Since many people have shared computers, would there be a away that you could rig up some kind of proxy where users have to login prior to accessing the Internet.  The login would then trigger a specific access profile including access times and website access lists.  This would be cool because it could provide device independent security and you could create a separate security and usage profile for each family member.
