Wireless Management
For added security you can opt to use Access Control based on the MAC address. This feature lets you create a
list of MAC addresses that are allowed or denied association with the Router through the wireless interface.
When it is enabled, the access point is instructed to forward packets only from wireless devices only if the MAC
address of the device is granted association. Packets received through the wireless interface from non-authorized
devices, including other access points, will be dropped.
Click Enable Access List.
Enter a MAC Address in the box, choose Allow or Ban, then click Apply.
Multiple Virtual Connections
The Router can use up to eight simultaneous PVC connections. These additional connections occupy the same
bandwidth used for ADSL service. Additional PVC connections can be added to establish a private connection to
remote offices or maintain a server accessible through the WAN port. Provision for additional PVC profiles must
be done through the telephone company or telecommunications services company. The remote user must have
suitable ADSL equipment for a successful connection.
The New Connection menu is used to configure additional WAN connection that can operate simultaneously
with the other connections. PPPoE type WAN connections can be disconnected or connected as needed. Non-
PPPoE type connections must be deleted from the configuration settings if you want to disable them.
To set up additional virtual connections, follow the procedure described in Create a New Connection. Keep in
mind that each new connection must have a VPI/VCI value set that is unique to the Router. The numbers for
these values will be provided by your service provider.
PPPoE and PPPoA connections may be connected and disconnected with the Connect and Disconnect menu
buttons located in the connection settings menu.
