To keep your wireless network protected and secure, you should

implement the highest security possible. For small networks, it is

recommended to select WPA2-PSK using AES encryption as the most

secure option. However, if you have older wireless devices in the network

that do not support AES encryption, select TKIP as the encryption

algorithm.

Access Policy — The Wireless Router provides a MAC address filtering

facility. The access policy can be set to allow or reject specific station

MAC addresses. This feature can be used to connect known wireless

devices that may not be able to support the configured security mode.

Add a station MAC — Enter the MAC address of the station that you

want to filter. MAC addresses must be entered in the format

xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
