Hi guys
I've been tasked to set up the new WiFi network at work and they want to stop people from using the WiFi from playing games; it uses up too much bandwidth and causes the network to be slow.
I know it can be done, as my Uni was able to do it, and I know how to open/forward the ports, as I've done it on my own router, but I don't know how to go about closing/blocking the ports.

Get a web filter (or something along those lines) to sit on the incoming pipe.. (not really the wifi router)..

Port forwarding is done on routers to point outside requests to internal ip addresses. I'm not sure that all routers offer port blocking however. So a general 'how do I do this' will not assure you specific menus.
Your uni most likely had higher end networking equipment, & not just a wifi router
