Adding Additional Non-WPS-Enabled Clients
If you are connecting a combination of WPS-enabled clients and clients that are not WPS enabled,
you cannot use the WPS setup procedures to add clients that are not WPS enabled.
To connect both non-WPS-enabled and WPS-enabled clients to the WNR1000v3 router:
1. Configure the settings of the WNR1000v3 router (shown in the Wireless Settings screen) for
WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK security, and record that information. See “Configuring WPA-PSK
and WPA2-PSK Wireless Security” on page 2-10.
When you change security settings, all existing connected wireless clients that do not share
those settings are disassociated and disconnected from the router.
2. For the non-WPS-enabled devices that you wish to connect, open the networking utility, and
follow the utility’s instructions to enter security settings.
3. For the WPS-enabled devices that you wish to connect, follow the procedures in “Using Push
'N' Connect (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)” on page 2-13.
The WNR1000v3 router automatically preserves the settings you configured in step 1 so all
clients share the same security settings (for more information, see “Configuring the WPS
Settings” on page 2-16).
4. For information about how to view a list of all devices connected to your router (including
wireless and Ethernet connected), see “Viewing a List of Attached Devices” on page 6-7.
Restricting Wireless Access by MAC Address
When a Wireless Card Access List is configured and enabled, the router checks the MAC address
of any wireless device attempting a connection and allows only connections to computers
identified on the trusted computers list.
The Wireless Card Access List displays a list of wireless computers that you allow to connect to
the router based on their MAC addresses. These wireless computers must also have the correct
SSID and wireless security settings to access the wireless router.
The MAC address is a network device’s unique 12-character physical address, containing the
hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only, and separated by colons (for example,
00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). It can usually be found on the bottom of the wireless card or network
interface device. If you do not have access to the physical label, you can display the MAC address
using the network configuration utilities of the computer. In WindowsXP, for example, typing the
