Internet access control

My internet connection is measured, that is to say my ATT card allows 5gig/mo.  As it's my only access, I want to control all access to the net through Windows, Adobe, Itunes, etc (most of which I'm sure I don't know yet) and update their incesant.  Without seeking to go through each installed program, is there a way to do this?

A firewall can be used to block outbound connections. Integrated in Windows firewall can do that, but it is not as user-friendly as commercial alternatives. See:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff602926 (WS.10) .aspx

I would not recommend blocking updates Windows Update and anti-virus. You'd better turn off the automatic updates and the audit at a time convenient to you. Microsoft publishes updates of security at 10:00 AM PST the second Tuesday of the month; so, it would be a good time to check.

  • Parental Controls + Internet Access Policy 'Add' is shaded on

    I need to add several new devices to my "target devices" in the Parental control-Internet access policy and program schedules that devices can get online. But my 'Add' is shaded out and I'm not allowed to add devices. I use the browser to log in to the router.

    To manage access to the Internet, you have two methods available, Parental control and Internet access policy. That a method can be used at a time. So my first question which option you are trying to use to block or plan the Internet access?

    As the Parental controls can restrict internet access for up to five computers or devices. You can block access to the internet or to limit it to specific times, and you can also block specific Web sites.

    So if you have several devices then 5 to add then you should use the political Internet access option.

  • Office Pavilion Elite e9220y: name of the Internet access when you hover over said tskbr network 5. is that HP name or co cable. ?

    Hello

    I have a desktop Pavilion Elite e9220y Home Premium; Win 7; 64-bit computer.

    I'm wired; but have wireless for other things (Kindle, etc..)

    When I open internet access in the bar of tasks and under the "wireless network connection", I see MY connection (and the name I gave my connection) and 5 solid green bars (no problem).

    Above this section, there is an article with a picture of a House (provided by HP, I'm sure), and he says:

    ' Currently logged on:

    and just below it says: (to the right of the photo of the House) network 5

    and just below it says: internet access

    That's all it lists the wireless network connection with my name and the names of other connections in the district.

    My question:

    the name "network 5"?

    HP says it is my cable provider; my cable provider says it's at HP.

    This can be changed?

    Thank you!

    Hello Denise,.

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I understand that you have a problem with wireless networks.

    Windows will think it's in a new network whenever it detects a new router. If you have changed your router or the router configuration. Windows creates a new network. But do not worry.

    If you don't want the name of the connection to be listed under active connection, follow the steps.

    (1) open the "Control Panel".

    (2) select and open "network and sharing Center."

    (3) click on the ' icon "(une icône de la maison pour moi) less 'show your active networks'.". " This will open the dialogue "set network properties." Here, you can rename a network connection or a change as the network connection icon.

    4) click on "Merge or delete network locations" to view the list of network connections that are stored. You can merge or remove connections

  • No local/internet access

    I have a NX700 with a built-in wireless function. When I go through the Setup program tries to connect to the internet, he noted only that the wireless connection was working, and internet access and local access failed. Also, if I try to use a wired connection - it's the same thing: it acknowledges the wired connection, but the local access and access to the internet that these two don't. It is not my router because other devices work. I spent 90 minutes on the phone with care, and they think that I must return to my tv.

    I adjusted the security settings on the router, and it does not help. If anyone has suggestions on what to do, it would be greatly appreciated, because the back tv will be a chore.

    Thank you!

    I have the KDL40 - NX711 Wifi Tv and I have experienced the same problem when I changed my router. I am owner of a Netgear WNDR3700 and I had to exchange it because it was defective. The new router is exactly the same, and the TV can detect the SSID broadcast. When I entered my passode, TV would set up and come back with the message that Internet OK, has no Local access and Internet failed. It took several calls to Sony (who have no idea), Netgear and Comcast to realize that nobody could help. Eventually, I realized that I had to do a manual install and provide my TV with the primary IP address, subnet, default gateway and DNS address. I did not allow the proxy server at all. I was able to get this information through the control panel under Windows Vista. Click Network and sharing icon, under the wired home network click State view. Click the property box in the local area network box. The IP initially did not work, because it was already used by other wireless devices in the House. For example, I used 192.168.1 and TV it back foot. I logged on Netgear to see what devices were in use on which IP address, and I changed the last digit to a 192.168.8 (8), which was open. I hope this helps.

  • GPON with Apple airports, no internet access.

    Hello. I use airport time capsule/extreme 5th and 6th generation and huawei gpon terminal hg8310h. I got to the base station of configuration in dhcp mode and green light is ok, but not internet access.

    My ISP tells me that there is problem with Apple base stations. Unfortunately in google there are very little information on the airports and the gpon. I tried to reset the base station and etc. There is no success. Anyone know if there is such a problem with gpon technology and Apple base stations? Or maybe I'm looking for something different?

    Fiber type systems may have problems with the apple airports. It is difficult to explain, and you must provide us with a screenshot of the wan port real on the AE or TC you used.

    This issue will be generally visible that the ISP has given you a gateway which is not in the primary IP address subnet. If that makes no sense to post you the screenshot... but you should NOT change anything... Let's see your public IP address but also for a long time that it is dynamic and not static, it won't matter. Your IP address will change in 24 hours.

    I posted this kind of thing before. Nothing shows up well in google that is useful though.

    Ask your ISP... are they using IPv6 as it can always be a problem and the exact settings on the router are not clear for us... If IPv4 still make sure your getting a public routable address... Not all ISPS now provide public addresses.

    My Apple routers have never worked on my broadband as the main router... It is not the same issue... but it is something that apple clearly knows the impact is too small so that they care. If they exposed more controls, then we could solve this... but Apple phased out the controls. And even in the operating system most recent continues to remove them. My advice is very simple. Get a different router. At least until Apple take this seriously you won't be able to fix. And the ISP sounds like they are aware of the problem, but will not be useful either, because it is probably the only apple routers that have this problem. Conclusion... buy a compatible router.

    Use your apple routers in bridge for wireless and backups etc...

    You can even use them in a configuration a bit more complex, called static IP address... I use with another router.

    Re: time capsule Airport Guard disconnection

    For now, you probably have no choice... but give me the info that I asked, and we can work out where the problem is.

    Use the automatic configuration script = unchecked
    Use a proxy server for your LAN = not checked

    Make changes, then click OK, OK to save the settings.

    Check your settings for how your network adapter gets its IP and DNS settings.  On most home systems, these parameters must be defined for the system will get the settings automatically.

    If you have another system on your network that works, you can compare these settings with the settings of the system which is not a work and make adjustments.

    Click Start, settings, Control Panel, network connections, and then select your current network connection.

    On the general tab, click Properties.

  • Need help with internet access on a Linksys E1200 strategy

    Hi, I have an a Linksys E1200 (Firmware Version: 2.0.01), and September 13, 2012, I configured the Internet access policy to deny access to internet for 4 devices between the hours of 22:00 and 08:00 on the evening of the school.)  It was working fine! I was very pleased.

    Over the last weekend, the electricity was launched for a second, the power was back on in 2-3 seconds if. The router comes back online, and everything seemed in excellent working condition. Then Sunday evening (considered to be a night of school in our House) at 22:00 the router did not refuse Internet 4 devices as it normally did. I logged into the control panel admin via a browser web, and checked access to internet strategies, I configured last week was still configuration property.

    Everything was always configuration property to deny access to the internet for 4 devices Sunday night/Monday morning between 08:00 and 22:00. I checked that the router has the date and time. But the router is not always deny access as it was setup to do. It worked fine before the weekend, and then after the weekend it stopped working the property. The only thing I can think of this month of may of the cause is 2-3 seconds, the power went out then came back on. The router is connected through a surge protection.

    Then I set up the Internt access policy week last to deny access to 4 devices on the night of the school between 22:00 and 08:00. I waited 24 hours to make sure it worked, after that it worked, I got the router send me a backup of the config file. I tried to use it to solve this problem, but it did not help either.

    This is a screenshot of what looks like my Internet access policy. I had to create 2 policies because the router has refused to create a policy where the end time was not later than the start time. Anywho, so political #1 is from 22:00 to 11:55, and policy #2 is from 12: 00 to 08:00. This Internet access policy is configured to deny access to 4 devices between midnight and 08:00 Monday morning. It was working fine last week, so I'm 100% positive that it is the router.

    The following screenshot is the status information to show the date and time of the router is correct.

    So the router was Monday morning @ 03:00, the router has an active policy of internet access to deny the device access to the internet, the router had recently worked flawlessly to do this, but for some reason any, that he could not do this morning?

    Can you please explain it to me or provide me with free software to "lock" the internet for specified devices. I really want to have to stay until 22:00 5 nights a week, so I can help my daughter sneaking online when she should be in bed. taking his phone and the laptop is not an option.

    Thanks for reading, forward a reply as soon as possible.

    Hello. I think that Yes, too, that it is a router problem. Just to isolate it, try to update the firmware and then reset and reconfigure the router again and use the same policies that have worked before. On Cisco's Web site, the latest firmware for version 2 is 2.0.04. You can download it here http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/E1200. You can use the links below in the public KB site of Cisco.

  • Causing the problems of internet connection Internet access server

    I have covered a lot of discussions on this issue and have tried all the fixes I found relating to this issue but did not have a chance to find a solution to my problem. I apologize if this is a repeat post, but as I said, none of the questions I found helped.

    ------

    I have 2 laptops (windows 7), 2 xbox 360 s, and smart phones that will all connect to my internet connection with a problem and run great.

    However, I recently bought a PC oriented for the game, and I got this error because I got it.

    I am able to connect to the Internet. Google has always works as Youtube, but youtube videos will stop eventually buffering until I have restart the browser.  Most of the games that I play online will launch and play very well in the beginning, but then they lose the internet connection and not return it until I have close the game and restart it, then it works very well for 5 minutes for an hour, but ends by loses connection again until I got close the game and start it again... However, when games lose connection if I Alt + Tab back on the desktop I'm always connected to the internet and can run my internet browser to always connect to google or youtube... Other sites are also affected (Netflix, Microsoft, Outlook, contraction, etc. all will simply keep the load and eventually tell me 'the site takes long to answer').

    I tried the update of Device Manager, but it says it cannot find the updates for the server to access Internet with yellow Triangle /!

    I then tried calling Linksys (router Linksys E1200 series), who directed, I call my ISP, which then make sure that my drivers are up to date.

    At the beginning I was not able to check for an update for access to the Internet Server (all have been 'grayed out' and unclickable).  However after clicking on "Devices and printers" under the start menu, right click router<>

    I tried also to open the command prompt

    I did the "Winsock" fix according to the instructions and an IP reset via the command prompt, always with no success.

    I spent about the last 48 hours trying to get this update with no luck, I finally met a thread with a post that seems to fix the problem for Vista, but I need the version of Windows 7 which has not been registered.  A member of the community had provided a link to download the driver I can't find for the life of me.

    I'm typing this from my laptop (not the PC having problems) and it internet runs fine on this legacy without problems as are all other currencies clung to the same internet connection. The PC in question is the only one that is connected to the router, all the rest are wireless and work very well. (No wireless in the PC with the question card)  If I wired my laptop (with the same Ethernet cable that runs on the PC with the questions) my laptop connects to the internet and always runs very well.
