Mac Address Filtering 2wire
The Technicolor EPC3928AD residential wireless cable gateway with digital voice is a high-performance home gateway that combines a cable modem, digital voice adapter, router, and dual-band concurrent IEEE 802.11n 2.4 and 5 GHz. MAC address filtering Networking Routing modes Transparent bridging Routed modes Multiple client support 32 (briged. MAC Address Filtering is an in-built feature that is provided by every WiFi router. You can block third party devices from connecting to your WiFi Router even after spying on you. How to find MAC Address of my device? This is very simple.
 Note If MAC Filtering is enabled on a wireless router, any wireless devices connected to that router will be unable to connect until their MAC address is entered into the MAC Filter settings.
For troubleshooting purposes, you do not need to enable MAC Filtering if this is already disabled. If you wish to use this feature on your network, we recommend you contact the router manufacturer for assistance in setting this up.
Complete these stepsLog in to your router settings.
Search through your router's settings until you locate the tab or setting MAC Filtering. This is most often found within a router's Wireless or Wireless Security options. 
Depending on your router, MAC Filtering may also may be referred to as MAC Address Control, Address Reservation, or Wireless MAC Authentication.
If MAC Filtering is on or enabled, you will need to add your Nintendo system's MAC Address to the list of allowed devices and save or apply this change. If you do not wish to have MAC Filtering on for your network, simply turn it off or disable it. Please note that while Nintendo provides this information for our consumer's use, it is up to each consumer to determine what security needs they have for their own networks, and to decide how best to configure their network settings to meet those needs.

TelnetCommands for a Thomson / Technicolor Router
Tested on a TG587n V2 but may work on other Thomson routers

Important
Use the routers web interface to backup the router settings beforeplaying.
Reinstallingthe backup or in the worst case resetting to factory default andreinstalling the backup should get things back to how they were.
Use these commands at your own risk.
Enable Telnet in Vistaor Windows 7
If using Vista or Windows 7, telnetis not enabled by default but it's very easy to do and you only need dothis once. 
Go to 'Control Panel' > 'Programs and Features' >click on 'Turn windowsFeatures On and Off'> place a tick in 'Telnet Client' > click ok.
Start a telnet sessionto the router.
Click on 'start' in the bottom left corner of the desk top, inthe search box (vista) or run box (windows xp) type commandthen press enter. Technicolor Mac Address Filtering App
A black command window should pop up, in heretype telnet192.168.1.254
You will be asked for your routers username and then password,it's the same ones used to access the routers web interface.
The first thing to do is disable the routers telnet timeout.
This prevents the telnet session unexpectedly closing. 
Just enter the two commands as shown above to permanently disable thetimeout.

Change the port and speed to suit your requirements.
Speed automatically notches in steps of 64Kbps.
Note(1) :
The 'intf=Internet'part of the above commands may need to be changed depending on therouters firmware.
ie 'intf=Internet'should be correct for standard firmware.
O2 supplied routers may need 'intf=Internet'replacing with :-
For O2 supplied routers on a LLU connections replace with 'intf=O2_ADSL2plus'or in some cases 'intf=RoutedEthoA'
For O2 supplied routers on the Access service replace with 'intf=O2_ADSL'
Hint - You can check which one to use for the WAN interface by lookingat the results fromthe 'dns server routelist' command. 
See the screen capture below, in this case it's 'intf=O2_ADSL2plus'.
