For your information, the Deco M5 does not support mac filtering, while it supports blacklist, if you want to block some devices access internet, you can add them into blacklist.

 

Meanwhile, the Deoc supports parental control, you can limit the network connection of clients. 

 

May it help and have a nice day.

We need white list not black list.

 

Because parental control is not useable when your kid change own mac address.. our deco show notif "new device" and at this point whole parental control is useless.

 

I was thinking about "default profile" when you get new device it will be added to default profile it may helps until white list will be added.

Agreed. Would not have purchased and installed an M5 system if I'd known such a basic capability was missing. Can't return it now, and can't afford a new system. Guess I'll have to wait... unfortunately it seems that requests for whitelist capability have been made for the Deco products for a number of years, and it's still not an option.

Disappointing to see that MAC filtering is unavailable. Teens spoof MAC filter and no way to keep them out. Wondering whether to returm mine though I love the router otherwise.

Hi I have temporary solution, but it maybe annoying, change the WiFi password.

 

I do this at night to force them to sleep, and before morning I return the old password saved in there laptop and mobile.
