3CRWER100-75 Mac filtering problem

I have a Office Connect 11G router which I'm the MAC filter option used. I recenty purchased a new MAC Book and tried to add the MAC ID to the list. Unfortunately, it gives me an error: MAC address invalid. The funny thing about the address is it starts with an "F". Fx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx Apparenty, the router does not reconize the "F" as a valid number. Can anyone advise?

Thanks

I could save a mac address starting with whatever (debuging/changing the javascript that validates the mac address in that page) but i can't connect either so maybe it's a firmware limitation (not only a javascript issue).

here is the javascript&colon;

if (   ( parseInt( m.charAt(0) , 16 ) & 0x8 ) == 0x8 ||

103     ((parseInt(m, 16)) & (parseInt(m, 16)) & (parseInt(m, 16)) & (parseInt(m, 16)) & (parseInt(m, 16)) &(parseInt(m, 16))) == 0xff ||

104     ((parseInt(m, 16)) | (parseInt(m, 16)) | (parseInt(m, 16)) | (parseInt(m, 16))| (parseInt(m, 16)) | (parseInt(m, 16)))== 0x00    )

105     {

106        alert("Not a MAC address!");

107        oldmac.focus();

108        return;

109     }

clearly, the first condition is true with whatever value equal or higher than 8.
