The OS doesn't matter, the approach depends on how secure you need it. If they actually stick a router in there, unless its setup as a bridge (ie wan not used) it will be nat'ing connections so only its mac/ip will appear. So blocking by ip/mac doesn't help as you can spoof either of those anyway. What you may need is something that performs authentication for each connected user for example... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
