administration only wired

How can I restrict admin-access to 192.168.1.1 on the WNR1000v4 to wired connections only, and prevent wireless admin-access?

Wow, this is a bad security hole. I am returning the WNR1000v4.

I just got an old used WRT54G. It can restrict access to the admin IP address to wired connections.

Hi weirdwired,

 

As it stands, that feature is not yet available with the current firmware of your router. Rest assured, we are continuously working on improving the features of our products based on your feedback.

 

Regards,
