What did you do with the customer with the TPlink that could stream netflix but not surf?

Customer has a leased Mikrotik. I don’t think they will be able to handle managing a Mikrotik, and I don’t want us making changes multiple times each day so their kids do their homework. I told customer to shop for a router that can do what they want, and we would take back the leased router.

I still think sticking their head in the room has some value.

Look at router limits. They have a few options to do exactly what you are looking for.

    Seriously?

    What happened to sticking your head in the room and yelling “get
    off the damn Internet and do your homework”?  Are parents too lazy
    now to get up off the sofa and check on the kids?  When I was a
    kid, a parent could yell from 50 paces and make you soil your
    underwear.
