Wireless to Ethernet Bridge

I have a (God forbid) Macintosh in the building that is hard to get to by
ethernet cable. It is an older model Imac and therefore has a rather slow
USB 1.x port. So I installed a D-Link wireless to ethernet bridge.

I want to restrict which devices can connect to my network using the MAC (no
puns intended) address. Do I enter the address of the bridge or the actual
computer?

Thanks,
~alan

List the MAC address of the bridge you're using and set it up to only allow
listed addresses. That should do it.
