Can anyone tell me how to block others from accessing my router setup page?

Eg : A gave password of Wifi to B but do not want him to access the router page by going to 192.168.1.1.

How can i make sure B does not see wifi/router password. Even mac filtering doesn't help here.
I just want to block others from accessing 192.168.1.1 so they don't change pwd/configuration there.

Attached pic for reference.

Why don't you change router's admin password? Even if you give your WiFi password to someone, nobody can change router settings without admin password.

Wireless isolation is one way to prevent any device connected through wireless accessing router's management page.

^there is setting for whom you are allowing to view routers setup page (using mac address for devices)..
This will ensure only one or listed device can access this page. Usually it should be wired connection (wire from router to computer) to device for maintenance and troubleshooting etc etc.
After that you can change password for better security.
