How do I make it ask for the password each time you connect to the wifi?

Asdfxdasdf · Aug 4, 2013

I want to set it so that everytime someone connects to my wifi, it will ask for the password.

I went to the network and internet settings and found the network and set it to manually connect, but the password is already there and all they have to do is press connect and they are connected.

Is there a way to set it so it will ask for the password each time? I am trying to remove wifi from my son's computer and only allow him to use it when I let him.

Thanks

Not until the last sentence do we come to the actual situation.

Parental network control.

1. dd-wrt on the router. IP address and/or MAC address time controls
2. Change the password as needed.
3. PC in a common room in the house. "Dude...why are you on the PC? Your homework isn't finished. (unplug)"
4. Remove the WiFi situation from his computer. Ethernet only. Unplug the cable as needed.

USAFRet :

There is no way to just make it ask for the password each time he connects? And what is "dd-wrt on the router" ?

Asdfxdasdf :

Aside from changing the password all the time, i don't think so.
dd-wrt and similar is software that goes into your router. Provides much more flexibility and capabilities. Not the easiest thing to use, but might do what you need. Again, though....it is not for the faint-hearted.

Easiest solution is to turn off WiFi, and connect everything via cable. Connect/disconnect the cable as necessary.
