How to get my extender to not connect to certain MAC addresses?
Is it possible to "ban" certain MAC addresses from connecting to my extender only, not from the main router too. My extender is the Netgear Wi-Fi 5 Booster AC2200.

If you're not wanting certain devices to connect to the extender, just disable its one wifi function and give it a separate ssid.

Consult the fine manual, for example AC2200 Nighthawk X4 WiFi Mesh Extender User Manual p.33 ff. "Deny access to a computer or WiFi device" FMI.
