Ban his mac address in the router you can set times when it's allowed in most routers.

Then perhaps the answer to your question is: time to switch to a router (specifically, one that will allow you to impose time or bandwidth limits based on MAC addresses).

List ALL your equipment including model numbers (cable/dsl modem, switch). What is the IP address for YOUR Machine.
In all liklihood, your cable/dsl modem is a combination modem/router, as very few ISPs allow multiple IP addresses to a single account.
You may be able to limit things at the modem/router level, or if it is a managed switch (don't think netgear has them, but maybe I am wrong--without the model number, I cannot say).
If you just have a plain dumb switch and a basic modem, your network isn't likely to work. -
Bandwidth limitation is a pretty advanced feature that most home routers dont have. Your best bet is to look into getting a DDWRT compatible router.

Router , you must get one
but choose wisely -
They're talking about limiting his speeds to be lower at certain times, not cut it off completely. -
as the OP has thus far failed to provide full information, or even return, it is kind of academic...
how can i deny internet to one of the system in a switch
