Deny Access to a Computer or WiFi Device
By default, access control is disabled so that it is easy for you to connect to the extender’s
WiFi networks.
You can deny network access to specific computers and WiFi devices based on their MAC
addresses. Each network device is assigned a MAC address, which is a unique 12-character
physical address, containing the hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only, and
separated by colons (for example, 00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). Typically, the MAC address is on the
label of the WiFi device. If you cannot access the label, you can display the MAC address
using the network configuration utilities of the computer. You might also find the MAC
addresses on the Connected Devices page (see
20).
To use WiFi access control to deny access:

On a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the extender network, launch a web
browser.
