MAC address filtering not filtering
Region : UnitedStates
Model : TL-R470T+
Hardware Version : V4
Firmware Version : 5.1.2 Build 20130116 Rel.45577s
ISP : Time Warner
I have the TL-R470T+ dual WAN router, with service from Time Warner on WAN1 and Windstream DSL on WAN2. I'm using DHCP reservation to assign static local IP addresses to all my devices, so every device has under the column "Lease time", the words "Permanent". Then I saw a MAC address pop up with no description, and is not one of my devices, so I created an entry in MAC Address filtering, and specified Deny service to that MAC address. It is now several days later, and that MAC address is still in the DHCP list, so it's still getting access. How is that possible?
