User’s Application Scenario
Prevent unauthorized users from accessing my wireless network by utilizing the network device’s wireless MAC address.
For example, I have a computer that is connected to my wireless network. Now, an unknown device (an intruder) is also using my wireless network, which affects my Internet speed. I would like to control my wireless network with the following capabilities:
• My computer is always allowed to access the wireless network.
• The unknown device is not allowed to access the wireless network.
• I don’t have to keep changing my wireless password as often.
How can I do that?
For example: If you desire that the wireless station A with MAC address XX-XX-XX-11-22-33 and the wireless station B with MAC address XX-XX-XX-00-07-5F are able to access the modem router, but all the other wireless stations cannot access the modem router, you can configure the MAC Filtering settings by following these steps:
Follow the steps below:

If you want set Mac filtering for Wireless 5GHz, you can go to Advanced > Wireless 5GHz > MAC Filtering and do the same step as wireless 2.4GHz.
