how to enable mac filtering on uverse router

Now I upgrated to AT&T U-Verse (tv+internet+phone) bundle. I was able to configure the DNS on the DGND3300 to work with the opendns ip addresses to provide filtering of websites. I'm also attempting to do mac filtering but I can only get mac-filtering to work on 2.4ghz radio band and not 5ghz radio band. Previously, I had AT&T DSL and used my DGND3300 DSL Gateway/Router to connect to it successfullty. Going back to the Firewall IP Passthrough tab, I now saw that same MAC address in the. After scanning, I saw two devices: the laptop I had plugged into the router that I was using to make the changes, and the UDM Pro. I've search all settings and I can't seem to find any additional settings the would tighten access to the Gateway/Router directly. To get the right MAC address, I used the Clear and Rescan for Devices button on the BGW210’s Device Device List tab. Traffic coming in from a specified MAC address will be filtered depending upon the policy. The router uses the MAC address of a computer or device on the network to identify it and block or permit the access. I know that there is an access code for the device so when you start to drill down further for example to make changes to the firewall for example it will ask for that password.but you would think that they would initially ask for an ID and password and soon as you attempt to connect to the Gateway/Router. Configuring MAC Address Filtering MAC address filtering allows you to block traffic coming from certain known machines or devices. Found this strange because you would think that the first thing the Gateway/router would want to do is authenticate you instead of just letting you in. If Wireless MAC Filter is enabled proceed to the next step, otherwise, select Enable. Select Wireless and then Wireless MAC Filter. Leave the User name field blank and log in with the password you set for the router. It occurred to me that when I enter the Default Gateway address it doesn't ask for login ID and password. Open a web browser and connect to the IP address of your wireless router (the default IP is 192.168.1.1). So going through the setting's of his particular model (5268AC) to tighten up the security on it. I just upgraded my bandwidth with Uverse to 45mbps and had a Technician come out and replace my existing Gateway/Router.
