Wireless MAC Filtering

The wireless MAC filter is a layer of security that allows only specific MAC addresses

to connect to your router via Wi-Fi. This section allows you to specify a list of MAC

addresses that are authorized. When a device tries to connect to your Wi-Fi network,

if its MAC address does not match one on the authorized list, it will not be able to

establish a connection. Alternatively, you can ban a certain list of MAC addresses and

every other MAC address that is not on the list will be able to connect.

When you enable MAC address filtering on the Connect Box, you can set up a list of

MAC addresses, and then specify whether you want to:



Disabled – The default setting is MAC Filtering disabled



Allow the devices on the list to access the network (in which case no other devices

can access the network)



Deny the devices on the list access to the Connect Box and the network

(in which case all other devices can access the network)

Guest Network

The Guest network is a feature of the Connect Box Wi-Fi Gateway that creates a

separate network for guests. This secured network provides Internet access to wireless

devices for your guests. The Guest network SSID is the same as the 2.4 GHz Wireless

Network Name (SSID) however, followed by a Guest suffix. It is a totally different net-

work with a different password from the network which means devices connected to the

guest network will not be able to share files and printers connected to the main network.
