Parental Controls Client Limit Increase

[danwald92]

Hi,
I am currently running a RT-N66U with the latest merlin firmware. I am wondering if it is possible to increase the # of clients that i can add to Parental Controls. 16 is not nearly enough.

edit*** i would have named the option a$$hOle control but I don't have much influence within ASUS so parental control it is. Need it for office/work environment.

Reminds me of an old joke I heard on the radio driving thru Salt Lake City, Utah...

Three men are watching for the bus, making small talk...

1) First guy says I got four boys - they're all tall, and one more, it'd be a good basketball team...
2) Second guy says - "That ain't nothing - I've got 8, and one more would be a great baseball team!"
3) Third guys says - "Got you all beat... one more wife and I'll have the ultimate golf course"

(ducking now...)

You can always write your own iptable rules just like the UI does and add them to the nat start script as doucmented on Merlin's Wiki page:

If you look at your NAT tables you will find rules like this:

Blocked Always replace xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx with the devices mac address

DNAT  tcp  --  anywhere  !192.168.1.0/24  tcp dpt:www MAC xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx to:192.168.1.1:18099

Blocked always but 1 am to 2 am for a particular mac address

ACCEPT  all  --  anywhere  anywhere  TIME from 01:00:00 to 03:00:00 on Sat MAC CC:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
