is there any way to only allow access to the web at certain times?

for example  Wednesday night from 7:00pm to 10:00 pm I want to allow open access to the web
no other access

I do have other times that I want to allow access but that if the first example


hardware ver b1
firmware 2.02

Thanks

You would want to set up a access control rule. First, create a schedule.  From UI Tools > Schedules. Then create a Access Control rule. From UI Advanced > Access Control > Enable Access Control.  Apple the schedule to rule as you go through the Access Control Wizard. See page 75-77 of manual for more info.

I am not trying to restrict them to only a few sites

I want to all anyone to go anywhere using the access point but only during the allowed times

this is for a church and I am trying to set up a guest access point for visitors during services

when a vistor comes in they can connect to the guest access point and browse the web  but only during allowed times
that way I do not have to turn off and turn on the access points but can leave them running but neighbors do not have free web access

any suggestions on how I can do this

thanks

Here some inf o I have about Blocking:
Router Access Control, Blocking, Web Filters and Scheduling FAQ
To set up scheduling:
1. Reserve device IP addresses ON the router under Setup/Networking.
2. Set up a schedule under Tools/Schedule on the routers web page. Customize your dates and times here.
3. Use Advanced/Access Control configured and apply the customized schedule to a policy and to the PC(s) or device(s) desired to be controlled. 
4. Ensure Time is set correctly on the router. Tools/Time.

I do believe Setup/Networking/DNS Relay and or Setup/Internet/Manual/Advanced DNS Services need to be enabled along with configuring Reserved IP addresses, Scheduling, and Access Controls.

Is this router used at home or at a business?
Do you have a set of known connected devices? Or do you let any one connect?
Have you tried maybe setting a wireless schedule to have the wireless radios turn off at night then back on in the morning?

Then you would do as I suggested, but choose "Block All Access" at step 4 and set the schedule for the time frame you DON'T want them to get online.

Are you using the router and internet for personal use too? Or will the router be connected to a isolated internet source? I ask because the router also has a Guest Zone.

I am using two dlink 810l
one at the north side and the other on the south side
they are only to give web access
I have 3 time frames that need to be set up
sun  8:30 to 11:30 am   
sun   5:30 pm to 7:30 pm
wed  7:00 pm to 9:00 pm

all other times no access
no one needs to connect to the internal network

if I try the deny access I guess the schedules would be
deny
sun 11:30am to 5:30 pm
sun 7:30pm to wed 7:00pm
wed 9:00 pm to sun:8:30 am

that right?

That should work.
