Safeguarding Your Network

7. Select the Turn Access Control On check box.

8. Click Apply to save your Wireless Card Access List settings.

Now, only devices on this list can wirelessly connect to the N300R router.

The default password for the router’s Web Configuration Manager is password. On Networks 
recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. 

Note: When configuring the router from a wireless computer whose MAC address is 

not in the Trusted PC list, if you select Turn Access Control On, you lose 
your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then access the 
WiFi router from a wired computer or from a wireless computer that is on the 
access control list to make any further changes.

Warning: MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your 

network by the general public. However, because your trusted MAC 
addresses appear in your wireless transmissions, an intruder can read them 
and impersonate them. Do not rely on MAC address filtering alone to 
secure your network.

Tip: Before changing the router password, back up your configuration settings with the 

default password of password. If you save the settings with a new password, and 
then you later forget the new password, you will have to reset the router back to the 
factory defaults, and log in using the default password of password. This means you 
will have to re-enter all the router configuration settings. For information about how 
to back up your settings, see
