Enable and Manage Network Access Control
When you enable access control, you must select whether new devices are allowed to
access the network or are blocked from accessing the network. By default, currently
connected devices are allowed to access the network, but you can also block these
devices from accessing the network.
To set up network access control:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
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 the Turn on Access Control check box is cleared,
all devices are allowed to connect, even if a device is in the list of blocked devices.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
7.
Select an access rule for new devices:
•
Allow all new devices to connect. With this setting, if you add a new device, it
can access your network. You do not need to enter its MAC address on this page.
We recommend that you leave this radio button selected.
•
Block all new devices from connecting. With this setting, if you add 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. For
more information, see Manage Network Access Control Lists on page 76.
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.
