The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you
to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer
attempting to access the network that is not specified in the filter
list will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must
enter the MAC address of each client (computer) on your network to
allow network access to each. The “Block” feature lets you turn on
and off access to the network easily for any computer without having
to add and remove the computer’s MAC address from the list.
To enable this feature, select “Enable MAC Address Filtering”
(1). Next, select the access rule as “Allow” or “Deny”.
Then enter the MAC address
of each computer on your network
by selecting from the DHCP Client List drop-down box (2) and the
ID to copy to (3) before click “Copy to”. Or by clicking in the space
provided (4) and entering the MAC address of the computer you want
to add to the list. Click “Apply Changes” (5) to save the settings.
To delete a MAC address
from the list, simply click “Delete” next
to the MAC address you wish to delete. Click “Apply Changes”
to save the settings.Note: You will not be able to delete the MAC
address of the computer you are using to access the Router’s
administrative functions (the computer you are using now).
