Question How to Block Verizon G1100 MACs but NOT on the Guest Network?

[Tom Perkins]

Made mistake of divulging 2.4 and 5.0 password. Have about 40 devices on network. All will be well if I can block a MAC address without blocking it on the Guest Net. Any way to do this?

FYI I have a Netgear Access Point for the Guest network.

Thanks

I can't remember exactly how the mac blocking works on my g1100, but did it allow mac blocking by ap or just all in one central place? If all in one central place, you can't do what you want.

I think you are right! Gonna change passwords. Will come up for air sometime next week.

Thanks much.

I'd change the passwords and then set up mac filtering for the devices you want to connect, and then you can just shut off the mac filtering when you have guests needing to connect, and turn it back on when they're gone.

Yep, but I have learned the G1100 no longer supports MAC filtering!

Wow, that's a bit insane. I'm sure it's got to be there somewhere as that's a real help to locking down security even tighter.
