How to Restrict Wireless Access by MAC Address
To restrict access based on MAC addresses, follow these steps:
1. Log in to the WPNT834 firewall at its default LAN address of http://www.routerlogin.net with
its default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN
address and password you have set up.
2. Click Wireless Settings in the Advanced section of the main menu of the WPNT834 firewall.
3. From the Wireless Settings menu, click Setup Access List to display the Wireless Access
menu shown below.
4. Click the Turn Access Control On check box.
Note: When configuring the firewall from a wireless computer whose MAC address
is not in the Trusted PC list, if you select Turn Access Control On, you will
lose your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then access the
wireless router from a wired computer or from a wireless computer which is on
the access control list to make any further changes.
