BT Home Hub 5 question

[Ib≤In≤Iz]

I think you can set a password for parental controls on the phone.

I can't see any obvious way to turn off the BT with Fon on the router set up/software.

That’s cos anyone with a BT hub router is actually providing a wireless access point for other BT customers. Eg BT with phon - so your router is most likely providing the connection

One way to solve
Change provider, set up access times based on mac addresses

What about these?

How to set up parental controls on Windows Phone | Geek SquadSetting up My Family for Windows Phone | Windows Phone How-to (United Kingdom)

Already done that so that only Free Apps can be downloaded - so if I remove his BT app, he will download a new one!

Put a timer on the power supply, and lock it in a cupboard....that will screw him up...

Hum.... and what about the misses and myself? Can't we use it after "hours"??

How about setting up parental controls on your BT account page?

Log into your bt account online and activate parental controls, that should also work when using bt wifi with fon

It does the Wifi but not BT with Fon.

The BT helpdesks 2 suggestions were:

1. Opt out of BT with phone every evening and then opt back in every morning

or

2. Turn the router off every evening!

Classy unhelpful suggestions if you ask me!

Thats all well and good but it doesn't apply to BT with Fon. Just had a call from BT to confirm this!

Take the bloody phone off him at 21:30 and don't let him have it back till 07:00 next morning.

Simple

Yup, thats a far better idea! I'd still like the parental controls in place too!

there is no way to stop them
