For PLDT DSL Router:

1. Open up your internet browser and type in 192.168.1.1 from the the address bar. You can use your computer, mobile phone or tablet to access the PLDT admin page. Make sure your device is connected with your PLDT DSL router before accessing the admin page.

2. Enter your PLDT DSL router’s username and password or you may try the default credentials below:

Username: admin
Password: 1234

2. Click on “Setup” from the main menu, then “Basic” under WLAN, then click on “Show Active Clients” box.

3. Copy the “MAC Address” of the device you want to block. Mac address is a unique identifier or ID of each device currently connected with your router. MAC address is hard coded for each device so it cannot be changed compared to IP Address.

Note: If you’re not sure which MAC address for a specific device, here’s how to get your device’s MAC Address:

For IOS – Go to Settings>General>About, then look for “Wi-Fi Address“.

For Android – Go to Settings>About>Status>, then look for “Wi-Fi MAC address“.

For Windows – In windows PC, open “Command Prompt” app or press Windows + R on your keyboard, then type “cmd” then hit enter.
You’ll see a black screen (command prompt), then type “ipconfig/all” then hit enter. Look for “Physical Address“.how-can-i-block-user-on-pldt-router

4. Click on “Firewall” from main menu, then “MAC Filter“. Look for “Source MAC” box, then paste the MAC Address you want to block without the : characters. For example: c4e086710502

Hit the “Add” button to block the MAC Address of the device.

Note: The blocked device can still connect with your Wi-Fi but cannot access or browse the internet. You can just change your Wi-Fi password to prevent that device accessing your Wi-Fi.

For PLDT Fibr Router:

This MAC filtering is applicable only with software version RP2616.
