Wi-Fi Tab: MAC Filter Panel

MAC (Media Access Control) filtering can prevent unauthorized wireless devices from
connecting to your network.
The MAC filter is used to grant ("whitelist") or block ("blacklist") wireless devices access to the
Wi-Fi, 3G, and 4G networks. Access is based on the MAC address of each wireless device.
MAC filtering increases security of your network. You can give access to your network, based
on the MAC address of the wireless devices. This makes it harder for a hacker to use a MAC
address to access your network.
