      How do I set the MAC filter to permit MAC addresses on WiFi?
      I navigate to pfSense > Services > DHCP Server > WiFi > MAC Address Control > add in MAC addresses.

      I have WiFi devices accessing pfSense WiFi and I haven't setup the MAC address filter?
      So, how do I block WiFi, then only allow approved MAC addresses?

        I have decided to not use MAC filter, rather WiFi password access.

        I tried setting up WiFi password access by navigating to:
        pfSense > Interfaces > WiFi > Network-specific wireless configuration > WEP > untick Enable WEP > WPA > tick Enable WPA > PSK: password > WAP Mode: WPA2 > Save > Apply.

        My mobile device now won't find the pfSense WiFi?

        Any suggestion on how to set up pfSense password access to WiFi please?
