Factory Reset — Power On then hold Reset button for 10 seconds.

— password:
Factory default password: cajne57275 , on SSID dlink-*45C*

timeout is short and unforgiving. If it really hurts, then you can temporarily remove password [top menu -> Tools.]

— MAC address filter .. Advanced -> NetworkFilter -> http://192.168.0.1/adv_mac_filter.php

  • need to register wired + wireless MAC addresses , including NIC for powerline networking !
  • .. Android/iOS devices use private MAC by default 🙁 Must disable.
  • full list is maintained in a spreadsheet in recoll
  • 24 slot available. I usually have about 11 items populated.
  • If you uncheck one of 11 items and save, the item is still present 🙂
  • to remove one item, wipe out the MAC address textbox and hit Save. The empty item would be “squeezed out”
  • with a given iPhone, the MAC address “presented” by default is often a “private MAC” and therefore not in my filter. Better disable all private MAC on a given iPhone, and use the single physical MAC.
