MAC Filtering

Selecting Wireless > MAC Filtering will allow you to set up some filtering rules to control wireless

The Wireless MAC Address Filtering feature allows you to control wireless stations accessing the
router, which depend on the station's MAC addresses.
MAC Address - The wireless station's MAC address that you want to access.
Status - The status of this entry either Enabled or Disabled.
Privilege - Select the privileges for this entry. You may select one of the following Allow /
Deny.
Description - A simple description of the wireless station.
Note:
This function will not take effect if the wireless mode shown in Figure 5-6 is set to Client even
though there are filtering entries.
To set up an entry, follow these instructions:
First, you must decide whether the unspecified wireless stations can access the router or not. If
you desire that the unspecified wireless stations can access the router, please select the radio
button Allow the stations not specified by any enabled entries in the list to access,
otherwise, select the radio button Deny the stations not specified by any enabled entries in
the list to access.
