[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 459687, member: 3419"] I'm tired of turning off my router to get difficult child off of the computer, and a friend said I should be able to type instructions on my hard drive just to shut off the other computer but not mine. I've gone through Control Panel and other areas and am lost. Help! P.S. difficult child just racked up $325 worth of charges on txt msg reponses, such as ring tones ... I am barely speaking to him. When we set up T-Mobile, we told them to make sure there was no access. Someohow, someone got through. This is so similar to what we went through with-the add-ons for online gaming, to the tune of $300, that today when I got the bill, I told difficult child about it and went straight to bed. It hit me like a ton of bricks and I coudln't even function. I called TMobile from bed and they told me they'd request refunds but I had to pay the full amt first and then they'd refund me. husband called them back and came up with-a better plan. Not sure what it is. But he read them the riot act because difficult child wasn't to have access at all. I asked about suspending svc for 2 wks and they said you had to be in the military or leaving the country. Not what I had in mind. difficult child said someone hacked his FB. What's that got to go with-his cell ph? During the hurricane and storms, I turned off the router so many times, between the power surges and difficult child not wanting to get off, and my forcing him off, that something finally went wrong with-the battery backup and tech support had me going from rooom to room and the battery back up and unplugging everything and resetting it. But now I think that glitch wasn't only Verizon--I think it was the on-again off-again issue. Which windows to I open to turn off difficult child's wireless in the other room? Is it in control panel? Thanks for listening. :groooansmileyf: :mornincoffee:I've got to figure out how to turn off ONLY difficult child's Internet access. [/QUOTE]
