Google wifi mac address filtering. Thats the theory anyway. If the clients address matches one on the routers list access is granted as usual. Turn on wifi and connect to your wifi router. Otherwise its blocked from joining. Mac address filtering allows you to define a list of devices and only allow those devices on your wi fi network. Though google wifi and nest wifi rely on mac address information to help with this determination your google wifi and nest wifi device do not store mac addresses in the cloud.

Go to about phone section and tap on status. Instead its more of an administration tool that you can use to control whether or not your kids can access the internet at certain times during the day or if you want to manually add devices to your network which you can monitor. Mac address filtering adds an extra layer to this process. Before letting any device join the network the router checks the devices mac address against a list of approved addresses. Go to ip mac binding arp list page you can find the mac address of the all the devices which are connected to the router. Step 3 go to wireless wireless mac filtering page click the add new button.
