Advanced Settings
The Dovado router has a built-in firewall. In this section you will learn more about
this and other security features.
Besides password protecting the router configuration pages it is possible to restrict
the Wireless LAN devices that may access your private network and the public
Internet through the router.You can use encryption and/ or MAC address fi ltering
in order to achieve this.
With encryption you can choose a key, which then all Wireless LAN clients need
to know in order to access your private network through the router.These settings
are found in
WLAN->Authentication.
With
MAC address filtering
you can enter the MAC address of each client that
you want to grant access to your private network. This address is physically linked
to the network card in each client. These settings are found in
WLAN->MAC
Address Control.
