Setting MAC Address Filtering
The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows
you to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any
computer attempting to access the network that is not specified in
the filter list will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you
must enter the MAC address of each client on your network to allow
network access to each. The “Block feature lets you turn on and off
access to the network easily for any computer without having to add
and remove the computers MAC address from the list.
To enable this feature, select Enable MAC Address Filtering”

Next, enter the MAC address of each computer on your network by
clicking in the space provided (2) and entering the MAC address of
the computer you want to add to the list. Click Add

Changes to save the settings. To delete a MAC address from the list,
simply click Deletenext to the MAC address you wish to delete.
Click “Apply Changes to save the settings.
