How to Restrict Wireless Access by MAC Address

To restrict access based on MAC addresses, follow these steps:

1.Log in to the WNR834M 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.

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.

2.Click Wireless Settings in the Advanced section of the main menu of the WNR834M firewall.
