NOTE: Each network device has a MAC address that serves as a unique
identifier. The MAC address is a 12-character physical address, containing the
hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F (uppercase or lowercase) only, and
separated by colons (for example, 00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). Typically, the MAC
address is on the label of a device. If you cannot see the label, you can display
the MAC address using the network configuration utilities on your computer
or mobile device.
Enable the network access control list, set the access rule,
and allow or block connected devices
When you enable network access control, you must select whether new devices are
automatically allowed to access the network or are blocked from accessing the network.
By default, devices that are already connected to the network are added to the ACL as
allowed, but you can choose to block one or more of these devices from accessing the
network.
To enable and manage the network access control list for the entire network and
allow or block connected devices:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window displays.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Security > Access Control.
The Access Control page displays.
5. Select the Turn on Access Control check box.
You must select this check box before you can select an access rule and use the
Allow and Block buttons. When the Turn on Access Control check box is cleared, all
devices are allowed to connect, even if a device is on the list of blocked devices.
6. Click the Apply button.
