Hi!
This is my first time with an ASUS router (AX-11000). I use and like to use MAC address filtering (yes, I know what some may say, but that isn't the question - I have my own reasons for using this). With Netgear routers I was using in the past I was able to see the list of denied ("blocked") devices (and "allow" them) and their MAC addresses. They were written to the logs too. I need this because I need to add the MAC address of a new device to the MAC filter list and I can't always have alternate ways of obtaining it, say with some IoT devices I use.
I've dug through the router's administration UI all over, including logs, searched the web and the forums but have found nothing. I am sure that the answer is probably somewhere out there but this is particularly hard to find because there is a popular other question that uses the same keywords - how does one add a MAC address to the list and unblock the device ... but all of them assume that the MAC address is already known.
Can anyone help? Or is there simply no exposure of blocked MAC addresses in ASUS routers?
Thanks!
