For sure, turn off wifi on the tv and also block it’s MAC address at the router. Plug in your trusted streaming box of choice via HDMI and only use that (Nvidia Shield, AppleTV, Roku, AndroidTV, Homebuilt Plex box, etc).

I guess that’s nice. I installed cloudflared myself and get the same results that way with my pinhole. But it was an extra step.

Another +1 for namecheap here. Have a dozen or so domaions/projects with them.

Didn’t know there was a discourse. Thanks!

Cron jobs are mainly for enabling and disabling internet access by mac address on a schedule. I also like that these commercial products force search to google or duckduckgo safe search, and youtube to youtube restricted on a per user basis (which really could be done by mac address). I mean I can prob do all this with firewall rules myself. But a slick web interface would be cool.
