Chapter 3 Protecting Your Network This chapter describes how to use the content filtering and reporting features of the N300 Wireless Router with USB WNR2200 to protect your network. You can find these features by selecting the items under Content Filtering in the wireless router main menu. This chapter includes the following sections: • "Protecting Access to Your Wireless Router" • "Restricting Access by MAC Address" on page 3-2 • "Blocking Access to Internet Sites" on page 3-4 • "Blocking Access to Internet Services" on page 3-6 • "Scheduling Blocking" on page 3-8 • "Viewing Logs of Web Access or Attempted Web Access" on page 3-10 • "Configuring E-mail Alert and Web Access Log Notifications" on page 3-9 • "Setting the Time" on page 3-11 Protecting Access to Your Wireless Router For security reasons, the wireless router has its own user name and password. Also, after a period of inactivity for a set length of time, the administrator login automatically disconnects. When prompted, enter admin for the wireless router user name and password for the wireless router password. You can use procedures in the following sections to change the wireless router password and the amount of time for the administrator's login time-out. Note: The user name and password are not the same as a user name or password you might use to log in to your Internet connection. NETGEAR recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of both upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters. 3-1 v1.0, September 2010
