Client Filtering MN700

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

Well since it is only blocking the connection to the Internet I'd block
port 1-65535. That will kill any IM program, file sharing program,
spyware, & adware on there computer during that time period. File &
printer sharing will still work because they are not denied access to
the switch portion of the router or the wireless portion either. All
they would be denied is the entire Internet.

You really need to learn patience.

People post in there spare time.

When someone posts several times within a few minutes asking the same
question I'm not very likely to help.

Lucky for you I started my answer before your repeat posts made it to
the newsgroup.

Otherwise I would have ignored you.

I'd recommend when you get an error posting if you post again to
apologize mentioning you received an error. With that people become
more willing to help.
