Ping a Device and Allow or Deny the Device a Connection
You can allow (whitelist) or block (blacklist) connections to individual devices, regardless
of the distance radius of your Geo Filter. If you allow an individual connection, the device
can connect to your device, even if is outside the radius of your Geo Filter. If you deny
an individual connection, the device cannot connect to your device, even if is inside the
radius of your Geo Filter. However, you cannot block a dedicated server.
To ping a device and allow the device to connect to your device or deny the device
from connecting to your device:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard displays.
4. Select Geo-Filter.
