The WLAN filter should be used only as

an additional option. By using it you

could limit access to your wireless net-

work, but without encryption it would

be relatively easy for third parties to

eavesdrop on all of your data transmis-

sions.

To use the WLAN filter, enable the option Enable fil-

ters. Now you can manually enter different network

devices to provide access to your

dLAN 500 AV Wireless+ using what is known as their

MAC address or you can select take them from a list of

known devices (see 6.3.2 WLAN monitor  WLAN

monitor). Confirm each entry with Add.

Approved WLAN stations

Network devices or stations connected to your

dLAN 500 AV Wireless+ are automatically listed, that

is, to enable an already connected station for the

dLAN 500 AV Wireless+, simply select the MAC ad-

dress of the respective device and confirm it with Add.

This then appears under Approved WLAN stations.

To remove an enabled station, select its MAC address

and confirm it with Delete selected.

The WLAN filter can only be set for sta-

tions connected directly to the access

point (not the guest account).

The MAC address designates the hardware

interface of each individual network device

uniquely (e.g. the WLAN adapter of a com-

puter or the Ethernet port of a printer). It con-

sists of six double-digit hexadecimal

numbers, each separated by a colon (e.g.

00:0B:3B:37:9D:C4).

You can easily determine the MAC address of a Win-

dows computer by opening the window with the com-

mand prompt under Start  All Programs 

Accessories  Command Prompt. Enter the com-

mand IPCONFIG /ALL here. The MAC address is dis-

played under the designation Physical address.

After entering the MAC addresses, do not forget to

click the Save button. If the entered values are incor-

rect (e.g. because the colons are missing), a corre-

sponding error message is displayed.

Keep in mind that you also have to en-

ter the MAC address of your own com-

puter if you are connected to the

dLAN 500 AV Wireless+ not via the

Ethernet port, but via WLAN. Other-

wise you will block your own access to

the device via WLAN by activating the

WLAN filter!
