Hi,

Is the following possible?

I have several PC's and 3 printers networked - using a switch and router.

I have one PC that I don't want to allow internet access to - I just need this PC to have access to the internal network (shared folders, printers etc.)

Thanks
 
Yeah you should be able to do it with a software firewall, you can set it up to only allow connections to certain things while making everything else blocked by default.

Is there no way to do it without installing any extra software?
 
Some routers have internet access options in the control panel. If yours is one that does, then you might be able to disable access for that computer.

Would giving the pc in question a static ip and denying access from that up work?
