Advanced Setup

The MAC Filtering feature of the Wireless Barricade™ allows you to control access to your network for up to 32 clients based on the MAC (Media Access Control) Address of the client machine. This ID is unique to each network adapter. If the MAC address is listed in the table, that client machine will have access to the network.
