Set time limits Sky Q

Is there no way of setting time limits with Sky? I have Sky Q and read the new Max is not comptabile but seems to be the only offering from Sky to be able to set online time limits for your children. What's the alternative?

It appears that Sky will now supply Max to a household with a main Q box, but not yet to those with additional Q Mini boxes.

One alternative solution is to attach a separate wireless access point (not an additional router) to the Sky Hub over ethernet cable, and then change the Admin and WiFi passwords on the Sky hardware. Give the young people the password for the WAP signal, and switch that device on and off (either manually or via an electronic mains timer) as required.
