Hi I am new to open wrt and have no idea what I am doing !
I am computer literate and have some net working experience.

I have an ip showing on my network and I wish to block it on  wi fi 

how can I do this I do have wap pass word but I do not wish to change it

is there a user configuration guide available on line ?

Blocking by IP address makes no sense.  IP addresses are assigned by your router after the user connects. 

You can block by MAC address with the MAC-filter tab on the wifi settings page.  This is not secure against someone with malicious intent, because they could change their device to a fake MAC address.

Hi MK24 thank you for your response firm ware is currently My OpenWrt Barrier Breaker 14.07 / LuCI Trunk (unknown)

Under wi fi with 2.4ghz network selected it only shows IP address and no Mac address.
It does show the names of devices that I have configured on my network.

I think in the box where my named devices are I have seen mac address. there does not appear to be a way of selecting a device to do any thing with it.
Perhaps I need to up grade my firm ware to a more advance  interface how ever I am concerned that I will not be able to configure it to get It to work at all.

I purchased the router from china it came already to connect to the internet. I am using a 3g network sim card.

I was able to configure the wi fi network but had to dis- able some of the firewall settings to enable connection to internet. what I could really do with is some user manual or instructions on how to configure the settings the router is dual band 2.4 and 5g Wi fi.
The router is a Kuwi fi router.
I have started looking on the web site and found a different firm ware version that seems to have more functions but as I said I am concerned about not being able to reconfigure it due to lack of experience in this field. Do you have any suggestions on the best way to go about doing all this.
Basically I am using the router to run my internal network 5 devices and a printer and a wi fi net work hot spot that I do not want wi fi users to be able to hack my own computers.

Many thanks
Bernard

You want a guest network then.  The guests would have access to the Internet but not your LAN.

This stuff should be possible on the old version but you really should upgrade if possible because of security fixes.  You could look in the table of hardware to see if the device is supported with a mainstream release.
