MAC address filtering on the o2 wireless box II

Hi all,

I'm about to migrate from Sky. I currently have MAC address filtering Sky router. Is there a similar option for this on the O2 box?

Thanks

Re: MAC address filtering on the o2 wireless box II

Well, I am about to do the same as Sky have shaved off 30GB from my download quota. I am asking second questions.

I have received the O2 wireless box and I don't see anything like that in there. On sky I have;

MAC filtering
Access rules (Internet available from XX to YY hours).
Some IP addresses barred
Keyword based filtering (keep porn and gambling sites out of reach)

I am going to be missing these with O2 unless someone can enlighten me. Tell me if I am missing something.

Also, I could not find how to change the default IP address of 192.168.1.254 to say 192.168.20.1 or something similar.

I can't believe these are missing. If they are then maybe I shall stay with sky. Maybe there is a workaround.

Thanks and Regards, StarGold
