Blocking someone else's extender

[jmizoguchi]

With extender usage will not allow because of portal and
and unit has capable block Mac address , scheduled time, duration , etc.

Pass code can be created in multiple of it so you are not limited to just one

You're missing the point June - what can guest gate do to prevent internet access that they can't do right now without it?

MAC filtering they can already do, and for reasons previously discussed, it's not likely to be effective, multiple passcodes will simply inconvenience the other patrons, it's not going to stop Mr Free Loader for connecting for longer than it takes him to cross the street.

Guest Gate has more tweaks then standard guest network can offer.

multiple passcodes will simply inconvenience the other patrons, it's not going to stop Mr Free Loader for connecting for longer than it takes him to cross the street.

Once you know the which are on then you can block the mac address. I don't think you can expect to stop someone on the spot...

Since you create multiple codes, all can have different attribute and see how it goes. it's not difficult to change it's passcode from the portal. I can tell is extender will not able to connect to guest gate unless actual pc will connect to the wifi at least.

First - you need to understand the issue before you can find a solution - the purpose of guest networks (and guest gate) is to allow guests internet access whilst keeping them off your internal LAN - that's NOT the issue here, so those tweaks will be of no value here.

Second - let's completly ignore MAC filtering - we both know it's not going to have any effect.

Third - how will multiple passcodes keep the free loader away? He just comes over and asks for a passcode and get it.

that is on simple home end router does.

there other devices like guest gate can control the bandwidth, ports block. mac, etc to each pass codes. kill the usage the schedule at hours of operation.


the guy can come every day but I'm sure some point you will find who is the the one comes in the most. there is no ending but having a better tool can do better than then putting encryption key (ex WPA2 ) and cause more issues to other users connecting.

I guess it's all depends the OP feels. This no different then person to go McDonalds and uses ATT- Wifi use it which they don't use codes but there is other places that code and I'm sure code can give out to someone in same matter.
