the Router's Web-Based Utility” is checked. If you want to allow PCs with
specific MAC Addresses to access the Setup page of the Router's Web-
Based Utility locally from inside the network, check the radio button “Only
the PCs listed can browse the built-in web pages to perform Administrator
tasks”, and then enter each MAC Address in a separate field. The format for
the MAC Address is XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX (X is any hexadecimal digit). Only
the PCs with MAC address listed can use the password to browse the built-
in web pages to perform Administrator tasks while all the others will be
blocked.
After click the Add button, your PC's MAC Address will be placed in the list
above.
Click the Save button to save your settings.
