MAC Filtering
The MAC Filtering screen enables you to allow specific devices to connect to MiFi 4620L's wireless
network. For example, if you put the MAC address for your Wi-Fi-enabled mobile phone and the
MAC addess for your computer in the
Trusted Device List
, then only those devices can connect to
your device. The MAC Filtering screen has the following sections:
•
MAC Filter
(See
MAC Filter
on page 46.)
•
Trusted Device List
(See
Trusted Device List
on page 47.)
•
Connected Devices
(See
Connected Devices
on page 48.)
Trusted devices still need the correct network name (SSID) and network key (Wi-Fi passkey).
NOTE
The MAC address on the Windows operating system is called the
Physical Address
.
IMPORTANT
Do not enable MAC filtering unless you have added your own computer's MAC
address to the trusted device list. Otherwise you will be unable to access the device.
