ABOUT wrt54g 'Access Restriction'

Dear all:
once the duration of rule expired. It won't apply another rule by the time serial.
For example, I set up one of PCs was allowed to access internet between 7:00am~11:55am. This PC could access to internet after 11:55am, even I set another rule for this PC with duration 12:00pm~18:00pm.
Is any solution for my needs.
Beswt Regards

The Access Restrictions feature allows you to limit Internet access on your network.  You can deny access to certain computers, block certain applications and services, and block certain websites by the use of keywords or by the URL at a given time.  This feature allows you to customize up to 10 different Internet Access Policies for particular computers, which are identified by their IP or MAC addresses.

  • Downgrading firmware on WRT54G/access restrictions

    I had a WRT54G.  Access restrictions worked.  I upgraded the firmware and the access restrictions no longer worked. 
    So after researching, it appears the firmware I upgraded to was buggy and the access restrictions didn't work with the new firmware.  I couldn't figure out how to downgrade back to what I had. 
    Called Linksys and ultimately they said they would send a new router.  I asked if it would have the old firmware that my router had previously, where the access restrictions worked.  Yes, they said.
    New router arrives today.  Firmware is v1.02.2, June 7, 2007.  NOT the prior firmware.  Sure enough, the access restrictions still do not work on this router either.  I don't want to spend yet another two weeks trying to resolve this with Linksys.
    Question:  Is there a way to downgrade to firmware where the access restrictions actually work for WRT54G?  If so,
    what version should I downgrade to?
    where do I obtain it? and
    can I download the firmware and then install it using the administration/upgrade firmware tab on the router (even though it is a downgrade)?
    Thanks very much for any thoughts.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Badboy.  Unfortunately, although I could download the firmware and successfully load it onto the router, the access restrictions in that version do not work either.
    It doesn't seem as though all prior versions of firmware are on the ftp site, ftp.linksys.com.  For example, I also have a wrt54gs v. 4 (speedbooster) with the same access restriction problem.  It currently has a firmware version loaded that doesn't appear to be listed on that website.  (I couldn't download prior firmware for that version that worked.)  So, perhaps prior firmware exists for the wrt54g v. 6 that is not listed on that site also.
    Does anyone know if there is another site that has a more extensive collection of prior linksys firmware? 
    If not, I suppose I can call linksys again, but even if they send yet another router promising the old firmware on it, I suspect the message is just going to get lost between the promise made on the phone and the guy in the warehouse filling the RMA order.

  • WRT54GS Access Restriction for WiFi Connected Devices

    I have the WRT54GS v4 running with the latest Firmware Version: v1.06.3 -- I am attempting to add Access Restrictions for a few MAC addresses and IP addresses (my kids iPod Touch and laptop).   
    I am simply wanting to deny total internet access from 9pm to 7am.   I have gotten it to work but ONLY for computers that are actually plugged into the router (cat 5 internet cables).  All the computers/devices that connect to the router via wifi do not seem to be restricted at all.   I am thinking this is an issue with the router in that it ONLY seems to apply the Access Restriction rules to those devices that are actually directly connected by hardwire.
    Has any one else noticed this issue for WiFi connected devices?  Access Restrictions do not seem to apply to WiFi connected devices.
    Please help -- I would hate to have to buy another router.

    Are you sure you have enter the correct MAC address or IP address? Wired connections use different MAC and IP addresses then wireless connection...

  • WRT54G Access Restriction Time /Day Problems. Need Help!

    Hi,
    I have a WRT54G wireless router. When I set the access restriction time to DENY everyday from 11:00pm to 6:00am, it displayed that "The end time must be bigger than start time!". It is from 11 at night to 6 in the morning. How else do I set it? I even upgrade the firmware to v4.21.1 but it still does not work with that time setting.  I tried to set to ALLOW everyday from 6:00am to 11:30pm and it accepted the settting but it just applied the restriction right away without waiting for the right time (after I enable it, none of the laptops can access internet even its only 9:10pm).. The time in the linksys setup page is correct as well as all my pcs. Please help! Thanks.

    The Access Restrictions feature of a Linksys router allows you to limit Internet access on your network.  You can deny certain computers’ Internet access or block certain applications and services.

  • WRT54G access restrictions

    Hi
    I've (foolishly perhaps) just updated the firmware of this router and I'm trying to replace the access restrictions.
    I am trying to permit continuous internet access for one machine (identified by MAC address) but block facebook from 10.30pm.
    The current policy (set from 10.30pm to 11.55pm) allows me to do this but then refuses the machine ANY internet access outside of this time.
    Anyone had this problem before?

    Thanks for you help with this. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way around the problem. It would appear that I can set a policy to allow internet access and block a URL (in this instance, facebook) but this also establishes the parameters for the time available to access the internet.
    An example is as follows:
    Allow internet access and block facebook for one machine (identified by MAC adress) from 10:30 to 11:55 (only 5 min blocks of time are available).
    This has the effect of the diasallowing ALL internet access at other times. Writing a second policy that states internet access IS permitted has no effect - all other machines on the network are unaffected.
    Presumably it's just not possible to achieve what I want which is very frustrating - firmware is v4.30.15. It's simply become an academic challenge now!
    Again - thanks for the help. Must sleep now!

  • WRT54GS Access Restrictions

    I have a WRT54GS v7.2 with firmware version v7.2.06 build 002, Capture(month.num4)Apr. 30, 2008.
    I have been asked to allow internet access, but restrict access to social networking sites (facebook and twitter) except during a couple of time windows each day to improve workday productivity. Facebook & Twitter are to be allowed M-F during 8:40AM-9:05AM, 1:30-2:00PM and 8:00PM-11:55PM. Sounds simple enough, but I'm not having much luck.
    I created a three policies that allow internet access, but block facebook.com & twitter.com:
    Policy 1: M-F 12:00 AM to 08:40 AM
    Policy 2: M-F 09:05 AM to 01:30 PM
    Policy 3: M-F 02:00 PM to 08:00 PM
    Two PCs (both wireless connection) are listed by MAC address. I tested policy 3 (proper current time window). It works for one of the PCs, but totally blocks all internet access to the other. Any ideas?
    Additionally, is it necessary to have full access policies in place for time periods other than those listed (i.e. 8:40AM-9:05A, 1:30P-2:00P & 8:00P-12:00A)? My thought is no rule => full access.
    Thanks in advance.

    Try to uncheck "All Services" so you can unlock the website blocking URL and keyword boxes.

  • Access Restriction - Internet Connection Policy (between two times)

    I want to say something about the Access Restriction.
    I set the policy for allow internet connection for one of my LAN PC's. For example, I set the policy to ALLOW internet connection EVERY DAY  from 8:00PM to 10:00PM. Starting with 10M internet connection stops. BUT, after a few minutes I do a power circle (turn OFF and turn ON the router) and I have internet connection again. For me, allowing internet connection from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM means  to have internet connection ONLY BETWEEN THIS HOURS, not before and not after.
    In my opinion, this is the same situation with two DENY policies for internet connection, one from 12:00 AM to 8:00 PM and other from 10:00 PM to 11:55 PM (for the same PC, of course).
    Why POWER CIRCLE broken this policies ?
    ps - sorry for my English.

    @sunwatcher,
    If I set a policy for my little boy PCs ... for allowing internet connection from 4:00PM to 6:00PM (for example) ... after 6:00 PM internet connection stops and he turn OFF and turn ON the router (power circle)  and after that he have internet connection, from then for a long time ...
    I am from Romania, and I set time zone on GMT +2 (Bucharest time zone)
    I insist with this problem because I want for him to use internet only between two times. Outside this time frame I want him to do their homework.

  • WRT300N Access Restrictions by Keyword

    Hello All! 
    I have just installed the WRT300N router to my desktop computer for wireless access for both of my son's laptop's and Xbox 360's.  I have searched all over this forum and have not been able to find the answer to the question I have, although, I have found many other useful posts. 
    My question is about the Access Restrictions by Keyword.  There are only 4 boxes for the keywords to be listed.  Can you enter as many keywords in the one box that you want.  Listing only 4 keywords will not do anything to block access to sites.  I had a NETGEAR that would allow you to enter as many keywords as you want, but it wouldn't let you set it up to block certain MAC addresses.
    Thanks in advance!

    That is true that only four boxes are provided for that purpose. But i think you should be able to give multiple keywords in a box. I have never tried it myself. Just give it a try and see if it works and also let us know about it.

  • Access restrictions w/ WRT54G Ver 8 (Firmware 8.0.5).......

    It seems that Access Restrictions are a bit of a problem w/ the Linksys routers. Well, here's my story to go with the crowd. Hopefully, someone at Linksys / Cisco can provide a solution.
    I am wanting to set up access restrictions on my Linksys WRT54G Ver. 8 (Firmware 8.0.5). Following the "instructions", I built my access restrictions as follows:
    Policy 1
    Enabled
    Named for my PC
    Edited List of PC's - inserted my NIC MAC address and saved the settings
    Set to "Allow" Internet Access
    Everyday
    24 Hrs per day
    Saved Settings
    Policy 2
    Enabled
    Named for my daughters laptop
    Edited List of PC's - inserted her Wireless NIC MAC address and saved the settings
    Set to "Allow" Internet Access
    Sun - Thur: 07:00 AM - 09:30 PM
    Fri - Sat: 07:00 AM - 10:00 PM
    Saved Settings
    Policy 3
    Enabled Named for my wife's desktop
    Edited List of PC's - inserted her NIC MAC address and saved the settings
    Set to "Allow" Internet Access
    Sun - Sat: 06:00 AM - 11:00 PM
    Saved Settings
    ....then, I reset the router. Once up, I tried access from each PC...nothing. Couldn't get out.
    Thus, I went back into the Linksys set up, disabled the access restrictions. Viola ! I'm back on-line with all three PC's.
    Checked around the forum and found that some people had built a primary policy that included all of their PC MAC's or IP addresses and was "Enabled" and set to "Deny" Internet access 24/7. From there, they built out their access restrictions and, supposedly, they worked.
    I tried that as well...deleted all the access restrictions. Reset the router and went through the entire router setup to be on the safe side. Built the primary "Deny" access restriction then my other three PC restrictions. And....it still didn't work.
    Thus, I would really like to get this working so I can limit my daughters access. It's interfering with her school work so I want to lock her down a little bit. Friends are important to her but I've stressed that her education is even more important.
     Thus, if Linksys themselves or someone on the forums can provide an answer, excellent ! If not, I'll look into another router that can do the job. I'd rather not do that, but if the Linksys won't perform this function, I'll have to. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

    Thanks for the reply. I deleted all profiles and built just the two specific for my daughters laptop and one for my wife's PC. My wife's PC is running XP SP3. It follows the access restriction policy with no problems. My daughters laptop is running Vista Home Premium. With the policies active, her connectivity was sporadic for about an hour before it just finally shut off her connectivity completely...well before the policy was supposed to.
    Thus, I'm now thinking that thismay be a Vista problem to an extent as well(Gee....who would have thought that !?!?!?!?).
    I disabled the IP 6 protocol just as a precaution. Still no access. And when I disable the policies on the Linksys, she's back in service.
    Any further suggestions are appreciated.

  • WRT54G2 and WRT54G locks-up (freezes) when blocking web sites using Access Restrictions

    I am convinced that a few Linksys routers such as WRT54G2 and WRT54G have a major issue when blocking web sites using Access Restrictions (Internet Access Policy). After a few hours of internet access by 15 wired users the Linksys locks-up and blocks all internet web access. The only solution is to restart the power on the router.
    We are currently using a Linksys WRT54G2 v1 (firmware 1.0.04). We upgraded the WRT54G2 v1 firmware to the latest 1.0.04 version which did not resolve the issue.  NOTE: We were previosuly using a a Linksys WRT54G v1.1 (firmware 4.21.1) until the power supply blew a week after we started blocking web sites using Access Restrictions (Internet Access Policy).  
    Basically, we have a T1 internet connection and a hub connected to the Linksys router. We are trying to block several web sites such as facebook, myspace, etc. for 15 wired users. We do not use wireless connections.
    This is the 2nd time it happened with 2 different models.
    Please help ASAP.
    Thank you,
    Lance
    (Mod note: Edited post. Some parts off topic.. Thanks!)

    Also,  you have already upgrade/re-flash the firmware of your Linksys Router you need to reset and reconfigure your router from scratch. Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • Access Restrictions bug of firmware 1.01.1 for WRT54G V5 V6

    I am using WRT54G V5.
    The Access Restrictions function won't work properly when using firmwares 1.01.1 and 1.01.0. Ports can't be blocked by using the "Blocked Services" in this function.
    Now I have to switch back to 1.00.9 to make the port blocking work, but there is a DHCP server issue which could only be fixed in 1.01.0 or above.... Could someone fix this BIG BUG and roll out a new firmware????
    Thanks a bunch.

    What is your Fragmentation and RTS threshold value? I'm not sure if I'm reading your message right, but it says as far as I can understand 30. The value should be 2304 instead for both.
    Ty changing the wireless channel also to either 1, 6 or 11.

  • WRT54GS 1.1 Access restrictions

    I have a WRT54GS 1.1, firmware 4.71.1, and cannot block sites. I can create DENY rules to selectively block my kids, but must set up 2 rules for each MAC address, one to block 1200-0600 and another to block 9PM-1155PM, leaving 6AM-9PM open for the internet. Problem is, by having to use DENY rules, I cant block sites by URL or keyword - that only works on ALLOW rules. If I make a generic ALLOW rule, the URL blocking works, but none of the DENY rules then work, allowing internet access 24/7. I tried a generic ALLOW, 24hrs, and named all MAC addresses. This was followed by specific DENY's, by MAC, to filter. The ALLOW rule was the only rule being used - all others stop. Help?

    Policies are evaluated from the top down, i.e. it starts with the first and continues from there. For each policy it is checked whether the time of day matches and if the IP address/MAC address is in the list of pcs. If a policy matches it is evaluated, i.e. either it denys the traffic for deny policies or it allows the traffic for allow policies. If you have configured URL/keyword blocking those are excepted in allow policies.
    The important thing: with the first matching policy the processing ends! No other policies are evaluated. If you have a allow all policy with 24/7 time and some computers listed this will be the only policy which will be evaluated for those computers.
    Thus to use URL blocking from 0600-2100 and to block all internet the rest of time you should be able to use two policies:
    1. allow traffic 0600-2100 for listed PCs blocking certain URLs
    2. deny all traffic at any time for listed PCs.
    This allows full internet to all non-listed PCs. It blocks all traffic on listed PCs outside the 0600-2100 time. It allows internet traffic from 0600-2100 except for URLs listed.
    This should work. Unfortunately, the access restrictions implementation varies between routers and has a long history of flaws. Thus no guarantee that it will work this way. Still, the basic rule remains the only the highest matching policy gets evaluated and no other.

  • WRT54GS Internet Access Restriction Doesn't Work

    I have a WRT54GS wirless router and I can't get the internet access restriction capability to work. I'm trying to limit the time my kid's spend on their laptops, but the settings don't seem to take hold.
    I have upgraded to the latest firmware (V4.71.1) for my router. (AT least I think it's the latest). I am using the Wireless MAC Filter for security, so only my family's PC's can access my wireless router (and I'm not broadcasting my SSID to the world). In the Internet Access Restriction screen, I have my kid's PC's MAC addresses in the PC list... same ones that I'm using to allow them to access the router, so I know they're correct. Then I have set the settings to 'Deny' internet access during specific time periods: 12:00 am - 1: 00 pm, 3:00 pm - 8:00 pm, and 10:00 pm - 11:55 pm. I have 'Enabled' and 'Save Settings', so they should be live. After all this, my kids can still access the internet... this just doesn't seem to work.
    Any ideas? Shouldn't this work even without the latest firmware?

    Open the setup page of the router,Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz..Under Advanced Wireless Settings..Change the Beacon Interval to 50,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...Also reduce the MTU size to 1350.
