DHCP Leases

[Pandabeer]

Small question; i looked this morning in the Status and Log..In DHCP Leases I discovered a MAC Adress which I haven't give permission in the Wireless/ Acces Control list (I have 3 MAC adresses on accept, but this one is not mentioned in this list!)

I tried to ping to the given IP adress..whith succes!!

Does this mean that my router is open for the outside world..I thougt if the MAC adress is not in the accept list, it's not possible to get an IP adress from my router?!

I'm working with the shared key WEP 64-bit...should I do something?

this is not only about wireless devices, it's about all your NICs. eg your wired NIC also has a mac address


also possible is that you haven't turned on the ACL(this is not automatically turned on when you add entries to it)

Dear Antiloop, your right..wired is also in this list...thanks...
