By default, the radio button “All the PCs on the LAN are allowed to access
the Router's Web-Based Utility” is checked. If you want to allow PCs with
specific MAC Addresses to access the Setup page of the Router's Web-
Based Utility locally from inside the network, check the radio button “Only
the PCs listed can browse the built-in web pages to perform Administrator
tasks”, and then enter each MAC Address in a separate field. The format for
the MAC Address is XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX (X is any hexadecimal digit). Only
the PCs with MAC address listed can use the password to browse the built-
in web pages to perform Administrator tasks while all the others will be
blocked.
After click the Add button, your PC's MAC Address will be placed in the list
above.
Click the Save button to save your settings.
N OTE : If your PC is blocked but you want to access the Router again, use a
pin to press and hold the Reset Button (hole) on the back panel for about 5
seconds to reset the Router’s factory defaults, then access the Router’s
Web-Based Utility.
