MAC Filter
The
Enable MAC Filter
checkbox enables or disables the MAC Filter feature.
•
When the feature is
enabled
(checked), you must add the MAC address for the device to
the Trusted Device List. If a device not in the list tries to connect to the MiFi 4620L wireless
network, the connection is blocked even if the device has the correct network name (SSID)
and network key (Wi-Fi passkey).
•
When the feature is
disabled
(un-checked), any device with the correct network name (SSID)
and network key (Wi-Fi passkey) can connect to the MiFi 4620L wireless network.
Find the MAC Address on a Computer
The Media Access Controller (MAC) Address is also known as a hardware or physical address for a
device (usually a network adapter). It consists of six pairs of numbers and letters (for example,
00-21-9B-1C-64-34).
You can view the MAC address for any device connected to the MiFi wireless network from the Wi-Fi
screen. (See
Wi-Fi Settings on page 27.)
Tip!
You can cut and paste your computer's MAC address from the Wi-Fi Clients section of the Wi-Fi
screen.
If the computer is not connected to the MiFi wireless network, you can find the MAC address
directly. To find the MAC address, follow one of these steps:
•
On a Windows PC, the MAC address is the Physical Address. You can find the Physical Address
by running
ipconfig /all
from the cmd window.
»
To run
ipconfig/all
, select
Start > All Programs
(or
Programs
) >
Accessories
>
Command
Prompt to open the Command Prompt window. Then type ipconfig/all and press the Return or
Enter
key.
•
On a Mac, the MAC address is the AirPort ID.
»
To find the AirPort ID, open the Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network . In the list, click
AirPort
. Click
Advanced
. A sheet opens. Click the
AirPort
tab. The AirPort ID is at the bottom of the
sheet.
IMPORTANT
Windows only: Make sure you get the MAC address for the wireless network
adapter and not the Ethernet controller (NIC), if the computer has both.
