What is the correct notation for blocking a range of addresses in my
router?

If I block 64.18.5.13 it simply moves up to 64.18.5.14.

I thought the proper way to do it was 64.18.5.0/255 but obviously that's
wrong or at least doesn't work for me.

Whatever it is has run my upload data allotment up to 3gigs and I'm only
allowed 5g for 30 days! So this is a panic and I haven't been able to
find why this is possible?

And your router is? Downstairs in the family room. Only kidding, it's a Netgear wireless router which I can control from this box.
I've set it to block 64.18.5.0/24 and will wait to see what happens since the problem is not manifest at the moment. Since the grandsons have been at camp this week there are only two other computers in use, a Windows XP and a Mac and I'm not sure who's causing the problem but need to stop the bleeding first!

I used 255 because it's set up to assign DHCP above 21.

Thanks for the help.

In normal CIDR notation it would be 64.18.5.0/24.
