Does anyone know if the Firewalla router can block specific devices for Internet access for a scheduled time?  Their teenage kids could find a workaround when their Mac addresses were blocked.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks,

Wayne

  Thanks for the quick reply.  I'm about to order a router.  What model is best for the residential?  They have roughly 25 ethernet devices (Sonos, TVs, laptops, (6) Eero WiFi repeaters).

  I'd start with your current router, and see if you can change it to bridge mode. If you can, you can have firewalla as your main router and your old router as AP. Most of the time, if your AP is not too old, it may run faster.
