Set Up and Manage MAC Address Filtering

By default, the cable data gateway allows any connected device access to the Internet. As an
added security measure, you can use MAC filtering to block specific devices based on their
MAC addresses from accessing the Internet. MAC address filtering is a more stable blocking
method than IP address filtering because IP addresses can change but MAC addresses do
not.
Block or Schedule Blocking for Devices Based on MAC Address
You must add each device for which you want to block Internet access based on MAC
address.
