[SOLVED] AFWall+ iptables help

I am attempting to block connection to a specific BSSID. My friend's son has been getting around the access restrictions I set for the family on my friend's behalf (I have Tomato running on his Linksys), and his son has access to the neighbour's wifi. I want to be able to block the connection to this wifi. I am experimenting with this at home by trying to block my phone from accessing my router. I tried this IP table first:

$IPTABLES -A INPUT -m mac --mac-source 00:00:00:00:00:00 -j DROP

(of course, the 00:00:00:00:00:00 represents the actual MAC address which I am not posting here; and I used all caps for the address)

I still had access to the internet.

I also tried:

$IPTABLES -A INPUT -m mac --mac-source 00:00:00:00:00:00 -j REJECT

Still had access. Though this is not ideal (because the public IP is dynamic and I have no access to the neighbour's router to add a dynamic dns address to implement this should I go this route), I then tried my public IP address:

$IPTABLES -I INPUT -s 11.222.33.44 -j DROP

I still had access to the internet through my router. So I tried this iptable for the fun of it:

$IPTABLES -I INPUT -s 11.222.33.44 -j REJECT

I could still access the internet. Is it even possible to do what I'm trying to do?

P.S. - My phone, as well as my friend's son's phone is rooted.
