MAC address filter

[jgrove]

I am sorry if this has already been asked but i have struggled to find the answer.

My old router had a setting that only allowed listed MAC address's to access the internet etc, it worked as a MAC address filter. It made it very easy to lock my network to only those devices approved for connection.

Is this possible with the RT-N66? With the ASUS firmware or Merlin's firmware?

I cant seem to find any reference to it in the ASUS firmware?


Many Thanks

it seems only for wireless clients under the wireless tab.

Possible for wireless clients, at least in the Merlin fw. List can be in mode "reject" or "accept"

Note that MAC address filtering isn't really secure. It'll stop the casual "unintentional" connection, but it's really easy to bypass this (for someone who really wants to connect anyway).
