In a public or open wi-fi network if a user consumes most of the band-width, then, the speed drops. So, it is very necessary to block the user from the wi-fi network. There arevarious methods to kick someone off a public wi-fi network. You can block the MAC address of the user and restrict him/her from wi-fi network. This is of-course a rude behaviour and don’t block anyone from the wi-fi network without warning him.
KICK OFF WI-FI USER FROM PUBLIC OR OPEN WI-FI NETWORK
METHOD 1:-
USE WIFI KILL ANDROID APPLICATION TO BLOCK USERS
“WiFi Kill” is an android application that let you block other users of a same wi-fi network using Android device. The application needs root access for performing the task. It considers the device as a router and filter any MAC address and block the user’s MAC address.
The application is not available in Google play store. You can download the free version of ‘WiFi Kill’ and install the app in your phone. Open Wi-Fi Kill application icon, it opens and scans the network, then it shows you the complete list of all the connected devices with IP addresses in the application window. The application also displays the manufacturers details of each device connected to the network (you will not get any device name). Check the device IP that you want to block. Tap on it to get a pop up menu which shows three different reject method those are “drop policy”, “drop policy+reject target”, “drop policy+redirected to 127.0.0.1”.
“Drop policy” stops any downloads which are in progress in the associated device.
“Drop policy + Reject target” stops all the current downloads and stops all the future connections as well.
“Drop policy + Redirected to 127.0.0.1” redirects any attempting connection by the selected device to it’s own localhost. That mean, the device attempts to connect itself rather than connecting to the remote address. This option always shows the connection as active. But, you can’t open any page and it doesn’t show you any error.
According to me, third and last option is the best as it make the connection fake and the user does not have any clue regarding this.
Disclaimer note: This method is for education purposes only. We never encourage our readers to kick someone off your wi-fi network without any reason or without prior permission of network admin. Google also discontinue the application from the play store.
