Restricting Access by MAC Address
For increased security, you can restrict access to the wireless network to allow only specific PCs based on their MAC addresses. You can restrict access to only trusted PCs so that unknown PCs cannot wirelessly connect to the WNDR3700 router. MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network, but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.
To restrict access based on MAC addresses:
1.Log in to the wireless router 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 password and LAN address you have chosen for the wireless router.
Note: If you configure the router from a wireless computer, add your computer’s MAC address to the access list. Otherwise 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 that is on the access control list, to make any further changes.
