6 Configuring Frequently Used Functions
Issue 01 (2012-10-26) 6-9
You can select either of the preceding modes for the wireless MAC filtering function.
The wireless MAC filtering function controls the option of allowing a PC to be connected to
the router through a WLAN. The MAC address filtering function described in section 6.4
"Controlling the Internet Access Rights of PCs" controls the option of allowing a PC
connected to the router to access the Internet.
Configuration Example
For example, you have a desktop computer and a laptop at home. The SSID of your
WLAN is MyNewSSID. The desktop computer is connected to the router through a
network cable. A wireless network adapter is installed on the laptop. To allow only the
laptop to be connected to the WLAN and prohibit other unauthorized users from
accessing the WLAN, you can use the whitelist mode of the wireless MAC filtering
function. To create a whitelist and allow only your laptop to be connected to the WLAN,
do as follows:
Step 1
View and record the MAC address of the laptop.
Take the Windows XP operating system as an example. To view the MAC address of a
PC, do as follows:
1. Choose Start > Run.
2. In Open, enter cmd. Then press Enter.
3. In the displayed command line window, enter ipconfig /all. Then press Enter.
Multiple lines of information is displayed. You can find a line of information that is
similar to Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-11-09-11-04-DD. 00-11-09-11-04-DD is
the MAC address of the PC.
Step 2
Log in to the Web-based configuration utility.

, enter the MAC address of the laptop.

MAC address displayed in the command line window of a Windows XP operating system.
