Whats the difference between “MAC Filtering” and “Blocking”?
MAC Filtering is a process where your router or gateway refuses to pass data if the MAC address of the originating PC is not permitted. You don’t know the intrusion occurred until you look at the log files long after the event. In contrast, myWIFIzone alerts you in real time, right at your desktop and uses one of a hacker’s own techniques (session hijacking) to redirect his browser to a web page (captive portal) informing him that he has been blocked.
