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 shown on the router is translated to another MAC address. If your router's MAC
filter, WiFi 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.
Log in to your router and disable the MAC filter, WiFi access control, or ACL.
For more information about how to disable your router’s MAC filter, WiFi access control,
or ACL, see your router’s documentation.
