Block Access to PS3
« on: September 01, 2012, 06:26:54 PM »
Good evening,

I have a DIR-615 router.  I would like to know if it is possible to block a PS3 from accessing the internet completely, without blocking any other computers/devices.  I have access to the router, but not to the PS3 itself.

Thank you.

Use Mac Filtering or Access Control Filtering. Mac Filtering will disallow any connection if you set it to Deny Access.

Need to log into the routers web page at 192.168.0.1 and first reserve the IP address for the PS console under Setup/Networking. Save settings. Remember the MAC and IP address.

Then go to Mac Filtering under Advanced and add the related MAC address that is associated with the PS to the list and then select DENY. Save settings.
