MAC address
A MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique hexadecimal code that identifies a device on a network. Each
network-enabled device has at least one unique MAC address.
For example, if your computer is equipped with an Ethernet and a wireless network adaptor, each of these
interfaces will have its own MAC address.
MAC filtering
When using MAC filtering, you allow or deny devices to access your network based on their MAC address.
How to set up MAC filtering
1. Go to the Admin Tool (http://10.1.10.1), using a computer or device that is currently connected to your
Gateway (either wired or wirelessly). For more information, see “Accessing the Admin Tool”.
2. On the Gateway menu, click Connection and then click WiFi.
3. The WiFi page appears. In the SSID list under MAC Filter Setting, select the access point for which you
want to set up the MAC filter.
4. In the MAC Filtering Mode list, click:
Allow-All to allow all wireless clients. The Wireless Control List will not be used.
Allow to block wireless clients by default, except if they are listed in the Wireless Control List.
If you are currently connected via this access point, you must add your device to the exceptions in the
Wireless Control List before clicking SAVE FILTER SETTING (this will be done in the next step). If
you do not do this, you will be disconnected from the access point.
Deny to allow wireless clients by default, except if they are listed in the Wireless Control List.
