Restricting Wireless Access by MAC Address
The optional Access Control window lets you restrict the network access privilege through the WAG102 Wireless Access Point to specific wireless stations. When you enable access control, the access point only accepts connections from clients on the selected access control list. This provides an additional layer of security.
Warning: If you configure the WAG102 from a wireless computer whose MAC address is not in the access control list, and you select Turn Access Control On, you will lose your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then access the wireless access point from a wired computer or from a wireless computer that is on the access control list to make any further changes.

1.Log in to the WAG102 as described in “Logging In Using the Default IP Address” on page
