MAC filtering

Network > Firewall > MAC Filtering
Every network device has a unique, 12-digit MAC (Media Access Control) address. MAC
filtering allows you to restrict access to the Internet to specific MAC addresses on your
network. MAC filtering in this section applies to both wired and wireless devices. To
create MAC filtering rules on your wireless network only, go to the
section under MAC-filter. You can check the current MAC addresses of devices
connected to your router under Status > Overview under the DHCP leases section.
1. Log into your router management page (see
on page 8).
2. Click on Network, click on Firewall, and click on the MAC Filtering tab.
3. Check the Enable option to enable MAC filtering and select Mode.
Note: Please make sure to add the MAC addresses in the list first before clicking Apply.
