I think I want a hybrid network topology, but I'm not sure. 

My goal is to use keexybox to control internet access by my kids - they each have an iPad, and there is an AppleTV that they use which I would like to limit and manage. I would like to be able to schedule internet availability for these devices, and be able to pause/resume the internet when needed. Content filtering would be great too but it is less critical to me.

We have a ton of devices in the house, but I only really need to use keexybox to control the internet on the kids devices and appletv. The other devices in the home could continue to use the vanilla internet from my ISP unless there's a good reason to go through the keexybox.

I have a mesh router set up in a largish home, I would like to continue to use that wifi network as my network if at all possible.

Is there a guide for this kind of setup? I have been reading the docs but I am a little overwhelmed.

Thank you!!]]>

Thanks for the great software. This is regarding hardware for the software. Pi boards are hard to get nowadays. Is there an alternative hardware (similar to pi model) that can be used? Can it be installed in an android box? which is compact and so much easier to get.

In my setup Keexybox is DHPC/DNS/Gateway for all the devices.  I have no AP via the Rasberry PI 4, the WiFi's are being provided by either AP or Primary Router. depending on location of device.

I am new to keexybox. I have set it in Use KeexyBox for website filtering only mode. The Wifi AP works fine and DHCP as well. I see my devices setup with DNS pointing to the keexybox-Raspi4. All devices but a few have been setup under a new profile 'kid' and I tried to limit the internet access time using the 'Connection schedules' attribute. I tried several different time constraints and none is stopping the internet traffic.

Even the Stop, pause internet buttons on the Devices Tab does not seem to do anything. The stats although is enabled is blank.

Internet traffic metering feature(s) have any dependency on TOR or captive portal?



I want to have simple time-limit per device/profile and sit block. please let me know what I am missing. I tried reading through the documents to understand how it is supposed to work, and I am not getting the answers for this.


2. One more thing, the keeyxybox web interface after login in as admin does show as offline "Disconnected from the internet" not sure why.

Thanks,

I'm not sure if this is a feature request or whether other users have found a solution.  Keexybox does most of what I am looking for and I'm a new raspberry pi user, so this may be a really easy request.

In addition to users/profiles/devices we can allocate time schedules from Monday to Sunday 00:00 to 23:59 each day, which is awesome.

What I'd like to also do is to be able to allocate to a user:
 - time alocation;
in addition to the time schedule above.

So I can allocated to:
 - a user;
 - a maximum of 4hrs internet / time allocation (day/week)

So I would allocate to a user:
 - a profile;
 - a time schedule;
 - a time allocation (4hrs/day total)

Looking forward to what people have to suggest.

Cheers,

There is an outdoor modem, an indoor router (with dhcp disabled) connected to it with cable and all the devices are connected to this router wirelessly.

My Question is what topology should I use for this configuration? Should I change the ip addresses or other things on the router and Keexybox?

I am installing KeexyBox on a raspberry pi 2, with only ethernet cable and no wifi module. Can I set things up in a way that wifi connected devices connect to the router, then checked by keexybox and after that they access internet?

Thanks in advance

If i use the "Suggested topology",  does it only support wifi connection?  A rasbperry only have 1 rj45 connection so i suppose that device need to be connected as wifi.  Is that right?
