Nighthawk X6S AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender Use the Extender With MAC Filtering or Access Control When the WiFi device connects through the extender to your router, the MAC address of the WiFi device that is shown on the router is translated to another MAC address. If your router's MAC filter, wireless access control, or ACL is enabled, the WiFi device connects to the extender but cannot get an IP address from the extender and cannot access the Internet. To allow the WiFi device to receive an IP address from the extender and access the Internet, you must provide the translated MAC address to the router. To add a translated MAC address to your router: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your extender network. 2.
