Choose network interface to block #178

Open lucouto opened 10 years ago

lucouto commented 10 years ago

I'm a student and I use SelfControl very often when I'm studying at the Library... but sometimes I really need to use the Internet. So, I'm searching for a feature in SelfControl that allows me to choose to block only the WiFi interface letting me use the ethernet (cable) in case of need.

To add context, this request originated on Ask Different: Add feature to SelfControl software : choose network interface to block. A comment on the question suggests that if pfctl is used in place of ipfw, it becomes possible to block specific network interfaces.

We are using pfctl in our latest version. But, this won't make it in (lots of higher priority stuff).

lucouto commented 9 years ago

It seems that it's simpler now that the code uses pfctl. But I'm no programmer and can't help in coding that... sorry! Thanks anyway for even consider my request! Maybe sometime in the futre... ;) And thanks for the update Yosemite compatible version!
