Configuring the Smart Wi-Fi Gateway

Running the Smart Configuration Wizard

Supported wildcard characters include “x”, “X” and blank (space character).

Wildcards are useful when you want to specify all MAC addresses from a given

manufacturer. For example, by specifying only the Organizationally Unique

Identifier (the first six hexadecimal digits of any MAC address from that

manufacturer is its OUI) saves you having to enter all 24 million of them (the

table size is limited in the AP/Router to 128 entries). Some manufacturers

produce devices using more than one OUI, in which case you may need to

enter each applicable one.

• Name: You may optionally assign a name to a given MAC address. This helps

you recognize known equipment. Names are not used by the router/AP device,

they are merely an aid for recognizing equipment on your network. Names

need not be specified and do not need to be unique. Names are accessible

by Service Provider Technical Support personnel, so if privacy is a concern, you

may wish to use generic-sounding names, such as “Room 1 TV”, or not use

names at all.

6. Click Update to save your changes. Assuming all parameters you entered are

acceptable, that row will be added to the table.

You have completed adding an entry to the MAC address table. If you have additional

MAC addresses you want included, click Add new entry, and then repeat these steps

until you have entered all the stations you want. There is a limit of 128 rows.

Removing a MAC Address

To remove a MAC address from the ACL table, select the check box under Remove,

and then click Update. The ACL table refreshes, and then the MAC address that you

deleted disappears from the table.

Running the Smart Configuration Wizard

If you want to reconfigure the Smart Wi-Fi Gateway using the quick setup wizard (which

you used when on your initial setup of the device), you can run Smart Configuration.

NOTE: Before starting Smart Configuration, make sure you have the Wireless Broad-

band Network information from your service provider at hand. You will use this

information to enable the Smart Wi-Fi Gateway to connect to the Wireless Broadband

Network successfully.
