I work at a doctor's office and one of the employee's plays internet games. And I was wondering how I could turn off the internet for just one computer? We have wireless internet. And we have 4 Dell computers but we only want to turn the access off on one. Our browser is thunderbird! I would really appreciate your answers!

I believe you can click on my computer. Click on My network settings. Click on view network connections. Right click on the network connection that is active and disable it. I am not exactly sure if this would take the rights away to the other computers. Try it and see if it works.

Firstly, unless you have the proper authority at your workplace, don't go mucking about with other people's internet.
To disable one computer's access to a wireless network, open the routers config application and change the permission for the relevant MAC address from 'permit' to 'deny', or whatever yours uses.
It would make more sense to simply set the firewall to block access by a single program, ie the game.
Better yet, simply tell the employee that such behaviour is unacceptable.

just take the network key out of the system where it connects to... wouldnt it be better to discuss with the employee about the appropriateness of playing computer games whilst at work!!
oh and btw... i would so figure out what you had done and get the network code off you!!

how about you get a blocking program so that all of those games and similar web sites are blocked. if nothing else then fire the person for playing games on company equipment and on company time. some of those sites have viruses and other things like trojans that can enable them to get into your system..something I wouldn't want to happen to my docs office.

you have to set DOMAIN and u give Username and password everyone in your office after that u can adjust which one can connect or not. but it's expensive way to do this.
if u have experience on LINUX u can do this free of charge.
but it's hard to adjust.
or most easy way. go on pc which wanna stop internet connection
start / run
type "net stop dhcp"
all of the connection reset.
if u wanna to open type "net start dhcp"

if you have a wireless router then all you have to do is access the router and deny Internet access to that computer
