-The easiest way to perform Wireless MAC address filtering is to use the controls in FreshTomato's [[basic-wfilter|Wireless Filter]] menu. However, there are occasions when you need/prefer to block MAC addresses in a script. Using a script has two main advantages. First, it would be tedious and time-consuming to enter all the data for a large number of network devices into the Wireless Filter menu.
