I'm not familiar with Netgear kit, but MAC filtering works by defining a
set of MAC addresses (ie physical pieces of equipment, uniquely
identified by their MAC address) that are allowed to access your
network - anything else doesn't get beyond the router. I'm sure
there'll be a config screen somewhere in your router setup software
where you can define that...probably under "wireless network access"

That pretty much secures your network from intrusion unless you
encounter someone prepared to do MAC spoofing, which is pretty advanced
hacking IMHO! Anyway, the security services can break WEP/WPA when they
want to.

This may be your only option until the Netgear firmware and/or SB
firmware are working together.

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...

...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some
very expensive cables ;o)
