OK... this might indicate something,
Under device info..... status it shows wireless lan is my dlink
                                                    wireless lan2 is my dlink
                                                    lan computers is 192.168.0.102 (my  printer ) and 192.168.0.101 (my pc I am using right now)
Under wireless.........status it shows 192.168.0.102 (my  printer ) and 0.0.0.0 (xbox) and 192.168.0.101 (my  my pc )

What does that tell you?

[FurryNutz]

0.0.0.0 is either not getting an assigned IP address or had an address and now the xbox is off or in sleep mode.

When you turn ON the xbox, you can check to see what IP address it's getting under Settings/Networking/Advanced.

[BigBill]

Just for clarification The 2 places I just indicated in the last post  also show Mac numbers . That is how I knew what device was indicated the IP 0.0.0.0 etc

[FurryNutz]

Yes, the MACs will be shown at both locations and in the DHCP Reservation list as well.

[BigBill]

I turned the xbox on and it now has an IP address. I now nothing about his xbox but it flashed on the screen saying someone was on line so to me that would indicate the xbox is getting through the blocks I think I have set. I looked under access control and for that Mac address I have a after school set to block all access monday~friday 21:00~23:59 and another one called weekam set to block all access monday~friday 12:00~15:00 (the tme here is 13:46) yet the xbox seems to be online (because it is telling me that others are online)

[FurryNutz]

You can test the control by turning off the xbox. Change the time frame to something current or now. Save changes on the router. Then turn ON the xbox. It shouldn't be able to connect. Change your control back after testing.

Now I have a major problem ......... as I was following one of the procedures  from one of the areas you provided me with I pressed save as instructed and it began to save but then it just hung there. Now I can not access the internet (I am doing this post by bypassing the router) Strangely the lights on the router say all is ok and my son can go on his xbox  when I have the router connected but my computers and phones can't connect. I cant even use the web browser link http://dlinkrouter or http://192.168.0.1 they just return not a valid IPaddress... any ideas or suggestions

[BigBill]

Further to last post. When I say my son can connect to internet I ment when I had it connected not when I was bypassing it so I am able to get internet like now.

[FurryNutz]

Be sure your only including the xbox in any of the controls or rules your setting up. Leave all other devices out of the controls.

[BigBill]

 ATTN: FurryNutz Please look at my posts starting at #21 ( I have to solve that before I can get back into my dlink router

[FurryNutz]

Can you get any other PC to access the routers Web page?

If not, then you'll have to probably factory reset the router to clear the mis-configuration out.

[BigBill]

When I have the router hooked up the xbox can go online  but every other computer and cellphone that did work doesn't connect anymore. And I tried on a couple of computers to type the 192.168.0.1 and the dlinkrouter to get access but they just time out

[FurryNutz]

Sounds like the control is set up in reverse, so it blocking all others accept for the xbox. 

If you can't get back in, then factory reset. Then set up the router again. Be sure your not blocking all other devices, just the xbox.

[BigBill]

OK I managed to get the router up and connected to it with my computer.
Now how can I set up so each users device(phone,computer and or xbox) would require a login that would give them internet access but not be able to change router settings etc. ( as long as I can still have parental control)
Also can you give me simple instruction as to how I would set up so the xbox would have no access from Midnight to say 3PM and no access from 9pm to 11:59PM leaving access for xbox to be  from 3:01PM to 8:59PM MON. thru Fri.
You asked what region I was in ...... Eastern time ( US & CANADA ) I think but the time shown here on the posts are 3HRs short of my actual time
Also I might have found the answer for the first part of this post. I set a password for administrator (that only I know) and I use the wi-fi security settings for the users.



Thanks in advance, Your help is greatly appreciated.
