I've done some research on this one. The manual can be accessed on line at:
ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/rp614v2_reference_manual.pdf

Look on page 37 and 38 of the manual under blocking internet services. The
manual is in PDF format.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Blocking Services

I have a small network in my home: (3) Win98 comps and (1) WinXPPro  linked
through a netgear RP614v2 DSL router to the DSL modem.  I'm  trying to block
all internet services to one particular computer whose IP  ends in 6.
In  the router configuration I logged in as administrator, went to  "Block
Services"section and checked to block all services to IP 6, saved  settings
(it
indicated it was updating the settings) and then exited out.   That computer
is still able to access the internet and instant messaging.
I did winipcfg on that machine to verify the IP address was correct.
However in that winipcfg screen it also showed PPP device.  I'm guessing
that is
the Point to Point Protocol.  But if I've blocked all services  through the
router, why would there still be internet access and IM's coming  through?
Anyone have any idea  what I'm doing wrong?

TIA,
Kevin  Nowicki
