7. Configure and test your PCs for wireless connectivity.
Program the wireless adapter of your PCs to have the same SSID that you configured in the
FWAG114. Check that they have a wireless link and are able to obtain an IP address by DHCP
from the firewall.
Once your PCs have basic wireless connectivity to the firewall, then you can configure the
advanced options and wireless security functions of the firewall.
How to Restrict Wireless Access by MAC Address
To restrict access based on MAC addresses, follow these steps:
1. Log in to the FWAG114 firewall at its default LAN address of
http://192.168.0.1 with its
default user name of admin and default password of password.
2. Click the Wireless 11a or 11b link in the main menu of the FWAG114 firewall.
3. From the Wireless Settings menu, click the Trusted PCs only radio button.
Note: If you are configuring the firewall from a wireless PC and you change the
firewall’s SSID, channel, or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection
when you click on Apply. You must then change the wireless settings of your PC to
match the firewall’s new settings.
