i cant see a version 7 on this site
Linksys by Cisco - WRT54G Support
Version 6 and version 8 have a facility to restrict access
Page 14 of the version 5,6 and 8 user manual - available from the site i linked to above
so you should have that facility on your router
i would suggest you use the MAC address - you can get that from an ipconfig /all on the actual PC - how to do that is below
you will see a number like xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx
heres an example
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-1C-25-4F-79-59
extract from the user manual
