Allow all new devices to connect. With this setting, if you buy a new device, it can access your
network. You don’t need to enter its MAC address on this page. We recommend that you leave this

access your network, you must enter its MAC address for an Ethernet connection and its MAC
address for a WiFi connection in the allowed list.
