My Wi-Fi router
Access restrictions My router has been configured to allow only three devices to login to its management console (Web UI): my PC, laptop, and mobile phone. The router uses the devices' IP addresses as the access filter (essentially, a "white list" of permitted devices/IPs). This means those devices' IPs must not change when they join the network (the router's DHCP server may do that…
My Wi-Fi router is configured to permit access to only three devices at a time through its management console. These devices are identified by their IP addresses, which are stored in a whitelist by the router's DHCP server. This ensures that if a device's IP changes, it will still be able to login as its new IP will match the one on the whitelist.
The router's security measures include enabled IPv4 and IPv6 firewalls, DoS protection, and a disabled response to ICMP Echo requests. The wireless settings include a dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz setup with specific channel bandwidths and control channels. WPS and WPA/WPA2 are disabled for security, while other features such as SSH, Telnet, UPnP, NAT, DHCP server, DNS server, DNS Rebind protection, DNSSEC support, and DoT are enabled. The router also automatically checks for firmware updates daily and reboots weekly.
