If you are familiar with the EchoLife HG520s router, I want to choose which computers on my network get access to the internet.
I dont know what to type into the fields on my routers config page.
Please help

Thank you

Well, I'd use MAC filtering to select the allowed computers.

[newtonskinz]

Thanks for replying.

How do i do that

[newtonskinz]

anyone have any idea what I type into the fields in the thumbnail

[JohnWill]

Do you have a link to the user manual for that router?

You need to find a MAC filter, not a TCP/IP filter.

[newtonskinz]

I have a link but you mite have to be signed in to view it.
If you can tell me what to look for i can put images up for you to view, there is a couple in the reply's above.

[JohnWill]

How about uploading the manual as an attachment here?

[newtonskinz]

here it is.
had to split it coz it was too big.
Its pdf file

[newtonskinz]

Thanks for your help.
I found out how to do it.

[JohnWill]

Was it the MAC filter on the same page?

[newtonskinz]

I used the wireless lan settings which was in basic settings.
This only works for the wireless computers and i still have a comp connected to the modem via ethernet cable.
Any ideas what i can do?
i added an image of where i entered the mac addresses

Thanks

Do you have a similar screen for wired connections? Some routers only offer this capability for wireless connections. The reasons for that I've never understood, but that's what happens.

Look in page 29 and see if you can use the filtering there on MAC addresses to handle the wired connections.

k.
I dont understand what source ip and destination ip is.

[newtonskinz]

could you tell me what to write in the fields?
