Mobile Broadband Wireless-N Router MBRN3000
Restricting Access by MAC Address
For increased security, you can restrict access to the wireless network to allow only specific
PCs based on their MAC addresses. You can restrict access to only trusted PCs so that
unknown PCs cannot wirelessly connect to the Mobile Broadband Wireless-N Router. MAC
address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network, but the data
broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.
To restrict access based on MAC addresses:
Note: If you configure the router from a wireless computer, add your
computer’s MAC address to the access list. Otherwise you will lose
your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then
access the router from a wired computer, or from a wireless
computer that is on the access control list, to make any further
changes.
1. From the main menu, below the Advanced heading, select Wireless Settings. Click
Setup Access List to display the Wireless Station Access List screen.
2. Adjust the list as needed for your network. You can add devices to the Trusted Wireless
Stations list. Click Add to display the following screen:
3. You can add devices to the list using either of the following methods:
• If the computer is in the Available Wireless Cards table, select its radio button to
capture its MAC address.
• Use the Wireless Card Entry fields to enter the MAC address of the device to be
added. The MAC address can usually be found on the bottom of the wireless device.
• If no device name appears when you enter the MAC address, you can type a
descriptive name for the computer that you are adding.
4. Click Apply to save these settings. Now, only devices on this list will be allowed to wirelessly
connect to the router.
