how to turn off internet every day at midnight

thanks for your reply s i have just done a dlink Schedules on my router. set it from 5am to 11pm weekdays and sunday,hope it works.
 
I used to have to put my laptop outside my bedroom door from 11pm. Worked for me but as above. U must follow through with discipline.
 
Sod all the scheduling and scripting. Set a boundary and follow through with punishment if that boundary is crossed.

You're not nipping the problem in the bud, just bypassing it.
 
Not exactly a problem, just kids being kids. Not everything kids do warrant a punishment, removing the service during those times they are not allowed is enough. IMO anyway.

EDIT: Actually I agree with Gazanimal, the fact he is turning the router back on after you turn it off and he knows why you turn it off and you tell him not to turn it back on........... I personally would remove the device he is using to game on.

i have punished him gave him a good hiding, but it did not work. and hes using a desktop computer. if the dlink schedule works, ill be happy.
 
wow, you really need to man up and follow through with discipline, and no beating your child is not discipline, its just teaching him violence is okay.

stop taking the easy way,this is the part where u are teaching your son morals,respect and codes to live by, doing what your doing here is failing him and you as a parent,youve been given great advice yet choose to ignore it and gone with the easy option,this in the long run will just make it worse.

i dont mean to be harsh but its true, your making it much harder for yourself.
 
It's funny isn't it, I remember having the same issues with my parents but my computer was in the living room!

They must have told me twice and next thing I knew the PC power supply was on a keylock. Gotta love no tolerance parenting.
 
Ahh, remember doing the same. I remember booting up the net back in the 28.5k days, the modem had a little volume on the side to reduce the 'screech' noise of the net connecting, had to be quick on that little blighter to keep the noise down :D
 
Agreed, he needs to let his child know that there will be repercussions if certain rules are not adhered to, but try not to condescend him by telling him how he shouldn't be smacking his son.

Each to their own, your beliefs are not 'everyones' beliefs :rolleyes:

Lock his door at night, put a bucket in his room. And switch the internet off from down stairs.

That should do the trick. ;)
 
Take his hard drive off him and lock it in a safe/your car until he stops taking the biscuit out of you.

You seriously shouldn't have to resort to shoddy internet blocking tactics- when I was a teenager I respected my Dad far too much to be an ass with him.
 
May I suggest learning how to change your wifi password?

New password every day, give this to your son after his chores are complete.

Change the password before going to bed, and repeat until there is a little more respect from him.

(yes he could reset the router if he has accsess to it, but, you will know...because the password will have changed.)
 
the router schedule did not work. still playing after 12pm on steam dayz game.so i unplugged the modem and kept the plug in my bedroom. this morning he still would not get up.i had to drag him out of bed.under protest. i feel like kicking him out.
