To create a list of Wireless computers that can access the Access Point:
1 Press New . The screen shown in Figure 30 opens.
2 Select one or more MAC addresses of the Wireless PCs that you want to
allow to connect to the Access Point.
To select multiple MAC addresses, hold down the Ctrl key while clicking
on the addresses.
3 Click Add .
The list on the Connection Control window contains the MAC addresses
of all Wireless PCs that are in range, currently operating, and have the
same Service Area Name/SSID, channel and encryption settings as the
Access Point. You will find this screen easier to use if you set up and make
a note of all of your wireless PCs on your network first. You may also add
the entries manually if you know the MAC address.
To add a MAC address that is not in the list, enter the MAC address in the
appropriate fields. A MAC address consists of 12 characters. Valid
characters are '0-9', and 'A-F'.
Modifying a MAC Address
1 Click on the MAC address to be modified in the table ( Figure 31 ).
