Hey, so at my dads his next door neighbour asked to use his internet, which he agreed to for the weeks I'm not here, as then no-one will be using it, however, when I came over today, they've been using it, and using 7/8ths of the available bandwidth causing me to have crazy high pings, now is there a way for me to disconnect their devices on the hub manger? There are ways to delete them but they automatically reconnect.

 

EDIT: (At the moment I have disable 2.4ghz and enabled 5ghz, then set a new pass, so they can't connect)

Have a look for the MAC black/white list options. There, you can set which devices to block or allow on the network. 

 

Not all routers give you the option to do this, though. 

 

Also, you could just change the password on the 2.4GHz network?

We still want them to have access when I'm not here, and I will have a look into it

Tell them to get a their own connection.
