Pause Internet Access for Kids by Time Schedule on VigorAP903

There are more and more kids who have mobile devices such as iPad, smartphones, etc, in this modern society. If we put ourselves in parents’ shoes, we’d like to control our kids on the Internet to prevent them from being addicted to the Internet, so we may turn off the WIFI temporarily.
