Note: If you are configuring the Prestige from a computer connected to the wireless
LAN and you change the Prestige’s ESSID or security settings (see
), you will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to
confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match
the Prestige’s new settings.
7.4 Configuring MAC Filters
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address
is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know the MAC addresses of the devices to configure this
screen. To change your Prestige’s MAC filter settings, click Wireless LAN, MAC Filter to
open the MAC Filter screen. The screen appears as shown.
Note: Be careful not to list your computer’s MAC address and set the Action field to
Deny Association when managing the Prestige via a wireless connection.
This would lock you out.
