Connecting Wireless Bridge Clients With Mac Filtering Enabled - Buffalo AirStation WXR-1900DHP User Manual

Connecting Wireless Bridge Clients with MAC Filtering Enabled

When MAC filtering is enabled on the AirStation, a wireless client cannot access the AirStation unless its MAC address
is registered. However, if the wireless client is connected through a wireless bridge, you need to register the MAC
addresses of both the client and the wireless bridge. Otherwise, the client will not be able to access the AirStation.
When a wireless client connects to the AirStation via the wireless bridge, the MAC address displayed from AirStation's
Settings is different from the original MAC address. You can register both MAC addresses so the wireless client can both
access the AirStation directly or through a wireless bridge while MAC filtering is enabled. See the example below for
clarification.
Connect to the AirStation Directly:
Connect to the AirStation via the Wireless Bridge:
In Settings, the client's MAC address will have a different second digit than the original. Refer to the "Adding
Devices" section for more information.
