In this tutorial I’ll show you how to stop others from using WiFi connection on same network from your Android device.
How does wireless Internet work? The simple answer is, a WiFi router connects with a broadband/LAN connection and it supplies the Internet connection via wireless. In a public WiFi network, everyone accesses the same bandwidth; that might slow down your connection speed. If you and your friends are using the same WiFi, and you are doing some important works, and your friends are not, then how to stop them for a limited time period to use the WiFi without their acknowledgement?
If all of your friends are paying for the Internet connection, then you can’t stop them to use the connection. It’s better to block their connection for a while and re-grant access after finishing your work. To perform the setup, you don’t have to do a big task. Let’s know how to stop others from using WiFi from your Android device.
Requirements
1) A Rooted Android device
2) WiFiKill Application (Google it or Comment below)
WiFikill is used to block access from a WiFi connection and it is no longer available in PlayStore due to security issue, but you can easily download it from above link. The archive may show as an infected file, but you can risk free to use it on your device.
How to use WiFikill
To install WiFikill make sure that you have enabled “Unknown sources” installation. If not, then enable it by going Settings >> Security and tick on “Unknown sources”.
Open WiFikill and click on Start button to search devices which are connected to the Wi-Fi network. Now time to grant Super user access, if you are not granted previously. After granting access, WiFikill is ready to scan devices.
After complete scanning, you will see the list of devices on your network. It also shows, which device is accessing which website. You can simply check how much bandwidth is using in every single device.
To stop a person, you just have to tap on that IP, grab it and kill it. You can also kill all devices by grabbing all IPs at once.
It is not good to block others from a public network. You can do it in your private connection and do this prank with your friends.
