Orbi Wireless MAC Filter when in access point mode
My Orbi is in access point mode and it appears that I do not have access to setting up the wireless mac filter. When I go to Advanced->Security the "Access Control" menu link is greyed out. ...

Is there really no way to restrict wireless access to my Orbi network using MAC filtering?
I've used MAC filtering on several routers in the past and am absolutely amazed that a product that's supposed to be "state of the art" (and as expensive as it is) doesn't allow this.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for your reply and guidance.

Hello AtlantaUnitedFa
Yes in AP mode that is handled by your main router.
