Yes, after the /sys reset, we have to then remove the default config it places on the router.
However, I tried what I described twice. With the MAC server set to all interfaces, and the FW rules all disabled, it still wouldn't to MAC access on port 1. So, I resorted to having to do the /sys reset, so that I had the opportunity to do the Remove of the config completely after the reboot / initial login.

The first thing we do with RB751 is a System->Reset. Then do what we want with them. Normally just deleting the firewall rules will get full access on port 1. I don't know what your third thing may be. On 1/18/2014 12:25 PM, Paul McCall wrote: > We just recently started using a lot of the RB751 High powered WiFi units > for our residential clients.
