Filtered Private Port Range
• To filter users by network port number, enter a network port number or a
range of network ports. Select the protocol for each port number you want to
filter, TCP or UDP. Enter the port numbers you want to filter in the port
numbers fields. Users connected to the Router will no longer be able to
access any port number listed there. Click the Apply button when you're done.
Private MAC Filter
• This feature filters the Ethernet adapter's specific MAC address from going
out to the Internet.
• To check your Ethernet adapter's
MAC address, run winipcfg or
ipconfig in the command
prompt, depending on which
Windows operating system you
are using. To set the MAC filter,
click the Edit MAC Filter
Setting button. When a second
window appears (see Figure 6-

down box, and at the MAC num-
ber prompt, enter the 12-digit
MAC address you want to filter.
Click the Apply button and the
Continue button, before closing
the window. For information on
obtaining a MAC address, go to "Appendix F: Finding the MAC Address and
IP Address for Your Ethernet Adapter."
Block WAN Requests
• By enabling the Block WAN Request feature, you can prevent your network
from being "pinged," or detected, by other Internet users. The Block WAN
Request feature also reinforces your network security by hiding your network
ports. Both functions of the Block WAN Request feature make it more diffi-
cult for outside users to work their way into your network. This feature is
enabled by default.

MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)
• This feature specifies the largest packet size permitted for network transmis-
sion. Select Enable and enter the value desired. You should leave this value
in the 1200 to 1500 range. Most DSL users should use the value 1492. For
static and dynamic connections, the default MTU value is set at 1500 when
disabled. For PPPoE connections, the default MTU value is set at 1492 when
disabled.
Click on the Apply button and then the Continue button to save your changes.
