"Access your access point
Only Deny computers/devices with MAC addresses listed to access to the access point
management page and the Internet. Allow all others.
Note: MAC filter can be configured to allow access to the listed MAC address and deny
all others unlisted or vice versa. The recommended function is to choose to only allow
access to the MAC addresses listed and deny all others unlisted because it is easier to
determine the MAC addresses of devices in your network then to determine which MAC
addresses you do not want to allow access.
Before saving settings, add the MAC addresses to the MAC Table and configure the
options first.
• MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the devices you would like to filter. (e.g.
00:11:22:AA:BB:CC)
Note: If you device is not listed, please refer to your computer or device documentation
to find the MAC address.
