If this check box is selected, the router communicates wirelessly only with other APs whose MAC addresses are listed in this screen. The router still communicates with wire-connected LAN devices.

Note: The WNDR3400 router is always in dual band concurrent mode, unless you turn off one radio. Be aware that if you enable the wireless repeater in either radio band,

the wireless base station or wireless repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio band. However, if you enable the wireless base station in either radio band and use the other radio band as a wireless router or wireless base station, dual band concurrent mode is not affected.
