        He still shouldn’t be able to circumvent a solid password. Sure, if the cell has signal, the home wifi settings won’t matter, but…

          Solid password of what? The router admin panel? On the router that is physically in his home? He can just factory reset that router, and presto… Password is gone.

          You’d have to cut off VPN, SSH, and proxies, too, and to stop a really slippery network person from getting around that, you’d have to inspect protocol, not just block ports.

            Yea, true. There are also plenty of external DNS servers, so pretty hosed anyways without controlling the devices they use directly.
