Ummmmm.....

Have you got DHCP turned on or off in the router.

If you have DHCP turned off on the router it won't supply an IP address to the PC, that means that the PC won't be able to get one "automatically" from the router.
You need to tell the PC what IP address it should use.

And NO, MAC filtering does what it says on the tin. It only allows access from the MAC addresses on the control list.
