MAC address computer name
« on: February 20, 2011, 12:14:49 PM »
I am sure this has been asked before, but how do you put in your own computer name into the MAC filtering?
All I see is a pull down and that is not what I want to use for names.

Change the name of the computer on the computer. This can be done through the Control Panel. If you use the old style view, as I do, it's in System>Advanced Settings on Vista and Win7 and in System>Computer Name in XP. I don't know how to do it on a Mac.

The Network filter page is setup to show the MAC address.  You can't change the way it's displayed unless you go to work for Ubicom and rewrite the firmware.
