Broadband Buddy no longer works

I have set up some Internet off times on my kids consoles and tablets but now one of my kids has bought a wifi booster with its own network I'd but still connected to my router, broadband buddy doesn't turn off my devices at the specific time now and I need to somehow get this additional network ID added to broadband buddy so that I don't find one of the bug**rs online at midnight. Any ideas

@dommy82 if the booster has its own network (range of IP addresses) it is acting as a router and you cannot control devices connected to it but you should be able to add the unit to your managed devices so stopping it having internet access to a schedule. . 

No parental control system is going to stop a determined tech savvy kid and Sky no longer selling new subs to the Buddy. We are told a newxsystem is coming.
