Default internet access

Hello,

Is there any way to password protect the internet browser, so that users
without the password knowledge cannot access the internet at all? I am having
some internet abuse going on in my household, and I dont want to completely
get rid of the internet, but I dont want my children to have access to it.
Is this possible? Please Help!!!!

Hi Angela,

If it's my household, I simply unplug the offenders' network cable
from my router. Now, if you have shared access to your machine(s) then
disconnecting the network cable poses a problem.

I did hear of a Linksys router that requires a password for internet
access, but unfortunately I don't know the model!
