    I think that there are routers which allow to create a firewall rule in order to have a control over the Internet access. This is by default that every one on the LAN can access the internet. Blocking can be done with the help of the features available with the router. I cannot provide the exact point since you have not mention the model of your router.

    This thing have to be done manually each time, because there is no other good options. So for doing this you need to enable access list for filtering the user with help of their MAC id. On the list include yourself. If you want to allow them to use the internet then Disable Access List. This can help you in solving your problem. If need more help then give your reply.

    I tried you solution and it seems to be working for me. With the help of MAC id now i am able to block a particular user, whom i don't want to allow to use the internet. It was really a good solution to implement. Thanks to Ernesto4 for providing such a solution. The people who wanted to do the same thing can try the same solution.
