Setting MAC Address Control

The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you to
specify which computers are allowed on the wireless network.
Note: This list applies only to wireless computers. This list can be
configured so any computer attempting to access the wireless network
that is not specified in the filter list will be denied access. When you enable
this feature, you must enter the MAC address of each client (computer) to
which you want to allow network access. The "Block" feature lets you turn
on and off access to the network easily for any computer without having to
add and remove the computer's MAC address from the list.
Setting up an Allow Access List
1.
Select the "Allow" radio button (1) to begin setting up a list of
computers allowed to connect to the wireless network.

address of the wireless computer you want to be able to access the
wireless network, then click "<<Add" (4).
3.
Continue to do this until all of the computers you want to add have
been entered.
4.
Click "Apply Changes" (5) to finish.
