Title: MAC Address Limit
Post by: ktklein on November 29, 2010, 12:25:09 PM

Is there a way I can add more than 24 MAC addresses to the table for filtering?  Since using MAC filtering applies to both Wired AND Wireless (have not found a way to do Wireless Only), I'm filling up and almost at 24.

Nope, 24 is is the limit.  If you need to do more than that you will need a business/enterprise class router.

Just a note, I hope you know that MAC addresses filtering is not real security?

Easy enough for an attacker to simply change their MAC address to one that is allowed.

See http://www.grc.com/SecurityNow.htm#11 if you want more information, from a security expert mind you. :D

Just checking. ;)
