You can use access control to block access to your network.
To set up access control:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.

The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Security > Access Control.
The Access Control page displays.
5. Select the Turn on Access Control check box.
You must select this check box before you can specify an access rule and use the Allow
and Block buttons. When this check box is cleared, all devices are allowed to connect,
even if the device is in the blocked list.
6. Select an access rule:
• Allow all new devices to connect. With this setting, if you buy a new device, it can
access your network. You don’t need to enter its MAC address in this page.
NETGEAR recommends that you leave this radio button selected.
• Block all new devices from connecting. With this setting, if you buy a new device,
before it can access your network, you must enter its MAC address for an Ethernet
connection and its MAC address for a WiFi connection in the allowed list.
The access rule does not affect previously blocked or allowed devices. It applies only to
devices joining your network in the future after you apply these settings.
7. To allow the computer or device you’re currently using to continue to access the network,
select the check box next to your computer or device, and click the Allow button.
8. To view a list allowed or blocked devices that are not connected, click the following menus:

• View list of blocked devices not currently connected to the network
The list displays.
