Broken mac address filter

jaelee

New Around Here
Dear all,

Router : Asus N66W
Firware : 380.61 (but issue had before then)

When I updated firmware (also Asus firmware) then My mac address filter was broken i thought.
The mac address text was broken and Coudn't Add new one, Edit and Delete.
If I tried Some action then I logoffed by Admin site.
If you know how can i fix it or is it possible init only Mac Address Filter then Please tell me.

I attached pic my broken mac address fillter status.
# I'm not using english by first language so my english is bad. Please understand me.

Thank you.

it happened to me also, and I also noticed it when it wouldn't let me add any new devices to the network (pretty much ignoring new entries). you can disable it and it will allow you to add new devices to the network. alternatively, write down or take a screenshot of the addresses in the filter and reset the router, then manually reconfigure it. do not use any restoration tools, since it may just carry over the errors.

some changes seem to have been made to how the filter page works, and when updating the firmware the old entries were not carried over well.
 
The format of the setting was changed a few version back, causing issues with old data. Erase the existing data to reset the list. Through SSH:

Code:
nvram unset wl_maclist_x
nvram unset wl0_maclist_x
nvram unset wl1_maclist_x
nvram commit
