871w and MAC Address Authentication

[stu.packett]

I'm hoping someone can lead me to the right document or show me some example config to have my 871w use MAC address authentication. I currently have it setup to use WPA successfully, but for added protection, I'd like to use MAC address authentication. The goal is to use this router to replace a Netgear router. Thanks in advance.
