Questions on secure your router

Hi, In our case, MAC is Migration Authorization Code, a series of number and letter code system provided by the internet service provider when switching from one provider to another. It help protect the online system from hackers to ride into one's own connection and use the bandwith at will.

Just try securing your network...you can actually do it yourself...windows has tutorial on how to do it.

Mac Address or Media Access Control address is a unique identifier found in any network devices attached to computer or any networking gadgets. You cannot type it randomly in a router. It is available in your computer only.. you can view this by typing in the command prompt by typing ipconfig /all: This will show your physical address(mac address) If you turn off the broadcast option, even you would not be able to see your wireless network. The best thing to do is have a security password for your wireless network(WIFI). Make a complex password compose of small and big letters, including also numbers and symbols.. Hope this help..thanks.. --happy mylotting--

It is possible to do it by first allowing the broadcast and when your devices are registered to the router to have it memorize the mac address. Once all your devices are memorized (automatically when it gets the ip address from the router), have the router restrict the use to those devices only. The instruction book should provide the method to that. If you have a new device, you can redo the process. By not broadcasting the ID, you will need to type the id for the router to connect. However, once the device has connected to the router before, it should know how to reconnect. All the above will make the router more secure but the question to ask is whether you want to go through the hassle?
