Expert Configuration

Wireless client access control allows to authorize or explicitly inhibit access between specific wireless clients and the SpeedTouch™ wireless access point based on the wireless client's MAC address.

The Access Control tab allows you to manage the SpeedTouch™ Access Control List (ACL).

By default New stations allowed automatically is selected. Any client with the correct wireless settings (Network Name and, if required, Network key) will be automatically associated to the SpeedTouch™ and will be allowed to send/receive data via the SpeedTouch™ wireless access point. In case New wireless client allowed is not selected, you must manually add the wireless clients and their authorization to the access control list.

You can use the Association / Registration button to allow wireless clients to enter the access control list. This button can be found on the back panel of the SpeedTouch™, or on the Access Control tab. Pressing this button triggers the SpeedTouch™ to unlock the access control list for a time frame of one minute, after which the access control list is locked again. Any wireless clients trying to associate with the SpeedTouch™ having the correct wireless settings (Network Name and, if required, Network key) will be added to the table.

Per wireless client present in the access control list, the following information is provided and can be re-configured:

An intuitive name for the wireless client

Whether the wireless client is allowed (select yes) or not (select no) to exchange data between the wireless clients and the SpeedTouch™.

Regardless of whether registration of wireless clients is controlled via the Association

/Registration button or not, you can always manually add/delete clients to/from the access control list or define wireless clients that are specifically allowed (select yes) or not allowed (select no) to access the SpeedTouch™ wireless network.

To delete all wireless clients from the access control list, click Flush. Be aware that if you are connected wirelessly to the SpeedTouch™, you will lose your connection.
