Set parental controls
The parental control feature lets you block specified keywords and web sites from being
accessed and also lets you specify trusted computers in the network. Trusted computers are
not affected by the parental control settings.
Find the MAC address of a computer
Use the operating system of your computer to find its MAC address, as follows:
Windows: from the Start menu, select the Control Panel. Double-click Network & Sharing
Center. Then double-click either "Wireless Network Connection" for a wireless connection,
or "Local Area Connection" for an Ethernet connection. Next click the Details button. The
"Physical Address" line shows the MAC address.
macOS: open System Preferences and click the Network icon. To find the Ethernet MAC
address, select Built-in Ethernet from the Show drop-down, then click the Ethernet tab. The
"Ethernet ID" field shows the MAC address. To find the wireless MAC address, select Airport
from the Show drop-down, then click the Airport tab. The "Airport ID" field shows the MAC
address.
Linux: open a shell window and type
/sbin/ifconfig
(and press Enter). The wireless
interface is eth1 (unless there is no Ethernet adapter, in which case the interface is eth0).
