In this area you can control which wireless devices are allowed or denied access
to the router
based upon their MAC addresses. The MAC address
can usually be found either on a label on the external wireless product or in
the configuration utility of the wireless client, depending on the wireless
device you are using.
The router configuration pages let you configure access to the router based on MAC addresses by using the Allow Current Clients button or specify a level of filter to apply:
Click the Allow Current Clients button to allow all of the wireless clients currently connected to the router to be allowed access to the router in the future. By default, the filter setting of Allow only these devices will then be applied.
Allow all: Any wireless client that has the correct security information will be allowed to connect to the router. This is the default setting.
Allow these: Allows only devices with specific MAC addresses to establish a wireless connection with the router.
Click Add.
Enter the MAC address of the device that should be allowed to connect to the router and click Apply.
Deny these: Denies a wireless connection to the router for devices with the specified MAC addresses. This can be used if you notice unauthorised wireless devices that are connected to your network.
Click Add.
Enter the MAC address of the device that should be denied connection to the router and click Apply.
