Limit mobile data access times

Answered

Is there anyway to put time limits on a teens phone (Samsung Galaxy note) accessing plan data? I have set the modem to stop his xbox and phone accessing wifi after 10pm but he can still use data and hotspot from phone -currently taking phone nightly and would be much easier if could just stop access after 10pm. Thanks
