@Gulfmark   which router do you have?

Some will allow you to set access limits, or you could switch the router off, or use a timer plug. In any case teenagers are likely to find a way round that.

@Gulfmark : Make use of the Access Control features of your router but don't ever give your kids the admin pwd of it & if that's still the 1 shown on the label stuck to the router, change it.
