Allow or Block Access to Your Network
You can use access control to block access to your network.
To set up access control:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
4.
Select Advanced > Security > Access Control.
The Access Control screen displays.
5.
Select the Turn on Access Control check box.
You must select this check box before you can specify an access rule and use the Allow
and Block buttons. When this check box is cleared, all devices are allowed to connect,
even if the device is in the blocked list.
6.
Select an access rule:
•
Allow all new devices to connect. With this setting, if you buy a new device, it can
access your network. You don't need to enter its MAC address in this screen. Best
practice is to leave this radio button selected.
•
Block all new devices from connecting. With this setting, if you buy a new device,
before it can access your network, you must enter its MAC address for an Ethernet
connection and its MAC address for a WiFi connection in the allowed list.
The access rule does not affect previously blocked or allowed devices. It applies only to
devices joining your network in the future after you apply these settings.
7.
To allow the computer or device you're currently using to continue to access the network,
select the check box next to your computer or device, and click the Allow button.
8.
Click the Apply button.
Your changes take effect.
