recognize, you can click its name and compare its MAC address to the

MAC address of each of the devices on your network.

device might be an intruder.

“Amy’s PC”.

c. In the empty MAC Address field, enter the MAC address of the device

you’re adding to the list.

d. Click the beside the row.

5. For each device you want to block, repeat step 4.

Connected Devices (Block List).

Disable Wi-Fi When Tethering Device (Connected Through USB)

You can turn off your device’s Wi-Fi radio when connected via the micro-USB cable (‘tethered’).

This is done from your device’s Wi-Fi Options screen, or from the Zing Manager’s Wi-Fi

Options tab.

Note: If you change this option, your device must be reset before your change takes effect.

In this case:

● Only a computer that is tethered to your device can use it.

● You can prolong the battery life.

● The battery charges faster.

● WPS won’t be available. (See Connecting Through WPS.)
