[Suggestion] Individual Enable/Disable toggle for Wireless MAC Filter entries

[AngelSing]

Hi everyone,

I would like to suggest a small but very useful "Quality of Life" improvement for the Wireless - Wireless MAC Filter page.

The current limitation:Currently, if I want to temporarily remove a device's access (when using "Accept" mode) or temporarily stop blocking a device (in "Reject" mode), I have to delete the entire entry from the list. If I want to revert this change later, I have to manually re-add the MAC address and name again.

The Suggestion:It would be incredibly helpful to have an Enable/Disable toggle (or status column) for each individual saved entry in the list, similar to how other sections of the firmware handle lists (like Port Forwarding or VPN clients).

This way, we could keep a "roster" of known devices (guests, kids, specific IoT devices) and quickly grant or revoke access without losing the saved MAC address data.

Mockup:I have created a mockup image to illustrate exactly what I mean. I added an "Enabled/Disabled" button next to each client:

I understand that modifying the WebUI can be difficult if it diverges too much from the upstream Asus code, but I believe this feature would add significant flexibility to the MAC Filter management.

Thanks for your hard work on the firmware!

You already have such functionality in Asuswrt. In the Web GUI go to Parental Controls, Time Scheduling tab, enable Time Scheduling. There is a dropdown menu with last seen clients, name and MAC address. Just select the one you need and instead of Time select Block. Very similar in ASUS App, even easier. Just click the client and select Block. The final result is exactly the same unless the client is set with randomized MAC address.
