A lot of devices require internet for st least one time to set them up.

How can I set them up such that as soon as I’ve programmed them/set their schedule, I can deny them access and prevent them from being chatty back with the mothership?

      Yeah most routers will allow you to configure the traffic policy through their admin console. Some of the ISPs equipment won’t, if that’s all you’re using.

          Yeah, maybe. Could be a work around for some devices that will support it. I don’t see why not.
