Hi I am looking for a way to switch my broadband off at night to stop my teenager being on it night

I am trying to find out if I can get a block on my broadband after 10pm at night, as have a 13yr old who is using it through the night. I don't want to have to keep disconnecting the box every night. Surely there is some way to switch it off. I have looked at parent controls but can't find a way to turn it off. Thank you

@Jean30  With Sky you can get the Sky broadband Max subscription, There is additional charge to this, but it does give you that control over devices.

Note that any references you find online to a Sky product called 'Broadband Buddy' for Parental Controls on black Sky Hubs are now obsolete: that service closed down a while ago.

 

The white Max Hub plus the WiFi Max subscription supplement is the current solution from Sky.
