^ Thanks I'll read into that. Looks promising :D

My router does allow for making a guest network and keeping it totally separate from my network. I think I will do that for now, and buy a cheap DD-WRT compatible router, and use it to give them WiFi access. I'm looking into getting a cheap DD-WRT compatible router to set up as a repeater + use it to limit their bandwidth via MACid/IP .. looks like that's the cheapest/best solution

Not just promising, it works very well because I do the same thing as you. Unwanted devices in my network is capped at 300KB/s download, 10KB/s upload, and P2P protocols blocked.

Well .. if anyone is interested/having the same problem


I finally got around to just loading DD-WRT

I made a 2.4 ghz band and a 5.0 ghz band. Piggy backed a virtual network onto the 2.4ghz band and enabled AP isolation (not ideal or as good as getting a second physical router from what I understand, but it's free).

Was able to turn on QoS and access restrictions to restrict p2p ports, and set a macid priority with my computers at the top, and theirs at the very bottom. So far it's been working flawlessly and internet is faster than ever :D

Nice work!

Funny how the fastest way to becoming a router expert is someone leeching your fucking wifi.


Internet security? :fuckthatshit:

Necessity was the mother of all innovation, no? :fullofwin:

What a douchebag landlord.
