MAC address filters

Access > Filter > MAC Filters

Every network device has a unique, 12-digit MAC (Media Access Control) address. Using MAC filters, you can allow or deny specific computers and other devices from using this router’s wired or wireless network.

1.Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page” on page 27).

2.Click on Access, click on Filter, and click on MAC Filters.

3.Add the MAC addresses to the MAC Table first before applying the MAC filter function.

Note: MAC filter can be configured to allow access to the listed MAC address and deny all others unlisted or vice versa. The recommended function is to choose to only allow access to the MAC addresses listed and deny all others unlisted because it is easier to determine the MAC addresses of devices in your network then to determine which MAC addresses you do not want to allow access.

Name – Enter a name for the MAC address entry.

MAC Address – Enter the 12-digit MAC address.(e.g. 00-11-22-AA-BB-CC)

TEW-731BR

Note: You can check the Dynamic DHCP List for the MAC addresses of the devices on your network, see “Setup the DHCP server on your router” on page 30 or refer to your computer or device documentation to find the MAC address.

Click Add to save the new MAC address entry to the MAC Table. After clicking Add, the MAC address entry will appear in the list below. Repeat for each device.

Add – Saves a new MAC address entry.

To modify an existing MAC address entry, click on the entry in the MAC Table. When selected, the entry will be highlighted.

Delete – Removes an existing MAC address entry.
