"...I don't want to touch his pc to put admin control on as it's his,he bought it..." Yes, however, it is your house, your modem/router, your network, your rules -- that ought to trump his bypassing the computer behavior rules of the household; by the way, how old is this lad?
You did not give details as to what he does after bypassing parental rules, however, if he ever crosses certain lines, the blowback might be also on you. Maybe it's time to gently, firmly, have a few sit-downs [with lots of listening on both sides] during quiet times to give features and benefits of obeying household computer rules and at least some of the possible consequences of running afoul of certain boundaries.

I know exactly what you mean and he has been punished however as it's his last year of school I wanted to automate it kicking him off at x time on x x day.

If I put the Internet connection via a pcie card, his through the motherboard, putting my pc to sleep on x day at x time should work as won't it power down the pci/e slots

Thanks for all the input guys. Looks like it will be another router to allow LAN MAC filtering. Or I use the pc as mentioned.

Can windows 10 be set to sleep/wake at certain times?

Yes: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...up-your-family

Also, I highly suggest looking into using OpenDNS for more control: Web Content Filtering and Security – OpenDNS

I will look into open dns this week whilst off work. The link is for family settings not sleep and wake. I also have other things to figure out with it but I also have an idea for a stop for now
