Wireless Connection Control

This screen allows you to configure the Connection Control List to either permit or block specific wireless client
devices connecting to (associating with) the Wireless Router.

Wireless Connection Control

Enabled/Disabled. Enable or disable wireless connection control. The default is Disabled.

Connection Control

There are two ways to control the connection (association) of wireless client devices. You can either prevent
specific devices from connecting to the Wireless Router, or you can allow only specific client devices to connect
to the Wireless Router. The client devices are specified by their MAC addresses. The default is to allow only
specific client devices.

Wireless Client List

Instead of manually entering the MAC addresses of each client, the Wireless Router provides a convenient way to
select a specific client device from the client association table. Click this button and a window appears to let you
select a MAC address from the table. The selected MAC address will be entered into the Connection Control List.
