How to add a mac address access control
I am a bit confused here. I see that there is the access control page, but I can not figure out how to add a new iPad? Rachael
But Shodowsports – Post 11 above has posted a screenshot showing the function available and he lists three versions of firmware in his signature, including the one you mention?
How to add MAC address of my printer (HP officejet Pro 8600 N911a) to my NETGEAR router (WNDR3400v2)? I cannot find any option to add MAC address to the router through NETGEAR genie!! Can you please help??
Thanks.
Hi uperez,
Welcome to the community!
Are you trying to add the MAC address for Access Control feature?
The Access Control feature is added if you upgrade the firmware of your router to the latest firmware version 1.0.0.52.
To upgrade the firmware of your router, see the instructions here.
Let us know what happens.
Thanks, Elaine. I have upgraded the firmware to 52 from 38. I can see my printer is listed (MAC address) as allowed device to connect on the list but it is not connecting. I tried to connect the printer using the ssid and password but still it is not connecting. Please note that the same printer I connected wirelessly using the same rounter but now it is not connecting now.
