How do I add another mac address to my linksys router?

I have my main laptop set as the admin for my linksys router and I got an IPad for christmas but I forgot where to go to add its MAC address to the list! Please help! Thanks!|||By default, a Linksys' ip address is 192.168.1.1. Put that number into the address bar of your internet browser. When prompted for a username/password, enter your info. The default username is blank, and the password is admin. From here, go to the wireless security page. Find the mac filter list. Add the mac address. Done.|||Mac address is set at the manufacturer, but you can add, edit, and delete the mac addresses of the devices that are allowed on your local network. Go to your browser, type the device's IP (192.168.1.1), enter your user and password (admin) and add the mac addresses you want to allow access.


If what you want to do is change the MAC address of your linksys device (it is called mac address cloning), then after you login you have to select setup, MAC address clone, enable the feature and enter the new MAC address in the user defined entry fields. Save and restart the device.|||To add a MAC address on that particular router.
