Hello dalenohre
You should be able to add your network extender on the MAC filtering tab by adding the mac address. As for the phone try to tell it to forget the network and reconnect to it see if this fixes the issues.

Hi DarrenM - I'm hoping you can assist. When we access the 'MAC filtering' tab, the copy on the right reads, 'you can use the MAC Filtering page to block specific PCs based on their MAC address from access to the internet on selected days and times.' Can you plesae clarify how we can use this section add a trusted devise?

What devices are you having issues connecting to the network? mac filtering is a tool for people that want to only allow there own devices to connect to the network and keep others out not really a way to help devices connect to the network.
