#HOW TO ENABLE MAC FILTERING ON XFINITY ROUTER HOW TO#
But I have no idea how to filter my mac address. Make sure your router or modem isnt filtering out your consoles MAC address, which is so nad so. Later something popped up on my screen that said 'Your router or modem may be set up to filter out some devices. Since you have static entries in the ARP pool for specific IP addresses, you can create an address list for the different IP addresses, and use them in your firewall filter rules. I restarted my router but that didnt work. The way you would go about that is with the IP firewall and setting up appropriate filters with a time setting under the extra tab. Now, on the same note, do you reckon its possible to limit access using time frame, i.e for eg, for a MAC/IP which has been allowed in the ARP list, i would like some users to only be able to get access to Internet between say 5pm and 7pm and 1pm to 2pm? what would be the best way to implement this? Hello Feklar, Sorry,ignore my previous response,i realised my mistake was trying it out from my laptop which had not been "allowed" first in the ARP List lols, i rectified the situation and tested, YES it works superb! Thank you very much,such a simple procedure! That will probably be the quickest way to do that. Set the LAN interface to "arp=reply-only", and add in your arp entries into IP->ARP.
