Easy to ignore wireless router features

At present, wireless routers are widely used and their functions are also perfect. First of all, let everyone know the functions that are easily overlooked in wireless routers, then, we will give a full introduction to the specific functions of these functions. As broadband networks gradually become popular and prices keep falling, more and more families begin to use ADSL and power networks.

Cable TV networks and other ways to enjoy the fun brought by broadband networks, but children in the family will also be unable to resist the temptation brought by the Internet. online games and online games are deeply attracting them, so how can we better manage their Internet time and content? Although there are some parent management software on the Internet and the parent control function is also integrated in Vista, it is difficult to implement and often brings inconvenience to actual use, resulting in the consequences of self-binding. Isn't there a good solution to control the children's Internet time and content? The answer is yes. Today, let's start with setting up a home broadband wireless router and use the "time management" function to solve the actual problems of children's online control.

1. What is time management and control:

Time management and control is a function added by some broadband wireless routers. It aims to manage the time scheduling process for a function of a parameter, to put it bluntly, it is enabled when the time period is met and disabled when the time period is not met. In this way, we can set a broadband wireless router more flexibly and set a parameter value according to the actual time period. To expand the application, you can not only enable the switch to be disabled by time period, but also set parameters to different values by time period.

It is no exaggeration to say that with the time management and control functions provided by the home broadband wireless router, we can manage the online problems of children more flexibly and easily, you can adjust the parameter values as needed. Generally, there is a special "scheduling process" option in the wireless router management interface, which is the most basic element of time management and control. The scheduling process is used to set time rules. Because of the different wireless router "scheduling process" option location is different, so the author can not list one by one, the following I use D-LinkDIR300 wireless router to do the introduction. The scheduling process in the D-LinkDIR300 wireless router is visible in the Maintenance tab on the management interface.

The scheduling process function is to set a time period so that other parameters can be used to select a time period. From the interface information, we can see that the "scheduling process" can be detailed to the specified day of the week, from the time points to time points, accurate to minutes, we can also name each specified "scheduling process" to facilitate future differentiation. For example, if the scheduling process named "Parent Management" is set to Sunday and nine o'clock A.M. to nine o'clock P.M. on Saturday, select "Sunday" and "Saturday, select the information corresponding to the "Start Time" and "End Time" from the drop-down menu below. Click "Save settings" in the upper left corner to save the information.

Of course, in addition to parent management, we can also fill in the corresponding "scheduling process" information as needed, such as setting up a rule that allows dialing from one o'clock A.M. to every day, then save it as another "scheduling process ". With these scheduling processes of different time periods and different dates, we can select these time control and management parameters from other functions and other parameters, in this way, the functions of different parameters of the wireless router corresponding to different dates and time periods are achieved.

2. Which parameters can be restricted through time management and control:

Different broadband wireless routers correspond to different time management and control functions, however, the author uses the D-LinkDIR300 wireless router corresponding to the use of time management and control functions of the wireless router set parameters are still a lot of, the following for you to list one by one.

1) parental control-prohibit children from accessing a certain site:

Most of the time we want to achieve the function of prohibiting children to access a certain site, in the D-LinkDIR300 wireless router we choose "Install" option under the "parent control ", this feature allows parents to restrict the address information of their children accessing the site. Of course, in combination with the "scheduling process", we can enable the children to access the site at what time and at what time prohibit their children from accessing the site. For example, for a game site, you can only access the learning website during the weekend. Select the corresponding time management and control items from the "scheduling process" drop-down menu on the right of the parent control rule. By default, we can develop 25 parental control rules based on actual needs, so that we can manage the address information of each site for children surfing more flexibly and conveniently.

2) dial-up management-make the network connection follow the rules:

Of course, we also need to control the children's Internet access time and time period. We do not want the children to easily dial up and connect to the network when they are on the machine. In this case, we can use the dial-up management function in the wireless router, load the corresponding "scheduling process", so that the dial-up connection can be completed step by step, and the dial-up connection can be selected based on actual needs.
