I have just bought on sale ASUS RT-AC3100 Dual Band Wireless Gigabit Router AiMesh . Then I've read a feed back for this router stating "can control max of 16 MAC addresses" . I know I should do to opposite - first reading the customer reviews and then buying but it happened in the rush of the boxing day.
Can you guy recommend me a good router with min of 30 controlled MAC addresses. I would like to have a very secure wifi network and only allowed from me devices to be able to connect to my network.
Thank you for your advices in advance.
Here is the review for this Asus router that made me very disappointed:
Only allows 16 MAC Addresses. You have to add each device one at a time by MAC Address. Good luck finding all the MAC Addresses in your house since each device can have 3. (WIFI 2.4ghz, WIFI 5ghz, wired). The default policy is to allow unrestricted access so new MAC Addresses will be unrestricted. Simple as switching the connection from 2.4 to 5ghz.
Additional Comments
Did I mention that you can only control 16 MAC Addresses? Every device potentially has 2 or 3 MAC Addresses, so you can only effectively control 4 or 5 devices/computers. What a load of CRAP. I expected much more in a $350 router.
