A higher level of security can be achieved for your wireless network if,
in addition to using encryption, you specify that only certain wireless
computers can connect to the Router. By default, any wireless
computer that has the same Service Area Name/SSID, channel and
encryption settings as the Router can connect to it.
To specify that only certain wireless computers can connect to the
Router, select permit/prevent, and then enter the MAC address of the
wireless clients. If you enable this feature from a Wireless PC, it will
automatically be added to the Authorized Wireless PC list. You may
enter a maximum of 40 PCs in the list.
Click Save to save your existing configurations or Cancel to discard all
changes.
The MAC Address must be entered as 6 hexadecimal pairs, for
example 12-34-56-78-ef-ab.
