Sky Broadband Hub - Block Device (Ireland)

PatWilliamsEire — Mon, 07 Jul 2025 08:44:00 GMT

Hi,

I am looking to block an individual device from my Sky Broadband Hub (in Ireland). I cannot seem to find an option to block a single device when I log onto the router. Is there a way to block a single device?

@PatWilliamsEire short answer is no the standard Sky Broadband hub does not offer mac address filtering. Even if it did that is likely to be ineffective as mac spoofing is very simple. The only way to excludeca device is to change the WIFI password.

Hi Chrisee,

Thank you very much for that reply. Next question, is the Sky Max Hub available to Republic of Ireland customers or have they kept that back just for their UK customers?
