I want to setup wireless MAC filtering to only allow connections from a brand of device so I want to know to to setup MAC filtering for a MAC address range? This router will only be used for wireless so if I need to set the MAC filtering somewhere else on the router like under access control that would be fine.

pls forgive me and my poor knowledge but what is MAC address range how it does look like ???
I know about IP range and i know how to block MAC addresses
via Iptables or DNSmasq, but i have no idea about MAC range please explain...??
and yes you can use wi fi mac address block list if so ....

p.s.and usually everyone who need help starts with router model and dd-wrt current build otherwise if i can guess those it will be so easy to guess the loto or euro millions Smile

Sorry its a WRT54G2 1.3 running DD-WRT v3.0-r33375 micro (09/19/17). I know under MAC filtering there is lots of spaces to put individual MAC addresses but I want to input a range of addresses.

so you have to specify one by one im afraid
or use dnsmasq but its the same one by one i dont think
MAC address range will work with iptabless never tried it
also as you are running micro build do keep in mind many features, commands, variables will be stripped off in order to match
flash ram size...

try something like

iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -m mac --mac-source AA:XX:XX:XX:XX:BB -j REJECT

iptables -I FORWARD -i eth1 -m mac --mac-source AA:XX:XX:XX:XX:BB -j REJECT

you can use br0 instead of eth1

or add those lines to additional DNSmasq


dhcp-host=11:22:33:44:55:66,ignore

Or, you can do it this way

dhcp-host=11:22:33:44:55:66,set:known
dhcp-ignore=tag:!known

I'm making my own 3DS Streetpass relay so I was seeing if I could limit it so only 3DSs can connect to it. It might be easier to have it only let access to the server the streetpass relay connects to.
