I have a DIR 855 that I have som some problems with securiting with MAC adresses.
The DIR 855 is connected to a CISCO ASA 5505, on the LAN port. My internet connection is on the CISCO and it´s a DHCP server. All I want from the DIR 855 is to act like a wireless AP, secured only with a MAC adress list.
I have turned of the DHCP and UPnP on the DIR 855, just like the manual says. I´ve also give my DIR 855 a new ip adress, matching the CISCO unit. The ip of my cisco is 192.168.26.254 and my DIR 855 have 192.168.26.95.
Everything is working fine when I´m using the router without MAC adress security. My IP on my wireless computer is 192.168.26.5, and I get full access to the network and internet. But when I turn it on, I get no wireless access to the network and I´m getting an autoconfigured IP adress thats 169.254.98.16.

I´ve checked the MAC adress list under "Network filter" in the DIR 855:s bios a hundred times (well maybe just 10 times...) and it´s the same numbers thats on my computer. I´ve also tryied adding 2 other computers and I get the same problem...
Anyone got an idea on how I can solve this problem? For the records, my old router worked just fine with the MAC adress security, but the thunderlightnings killed it for me

Have you entered by the local and remote clients' MAC addresses into the filter list?
