Thank you for sharing this information on how to secure your network.
MAC Filtering is useless now days because you can simply by pass it if you know the MAC of the PC that's on the NETWORK, replacing your own MAC with that of the other PC will grant you instant access.. Not recommended though but it's worth mentioning because can be useful some times in a home network
Do you have any Tutorial on how to do that?
Here's one http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ff521761.aspx
It can be found on your routers setting panel, Under Filtering or maybe Security

Hiding the SSID of a network isn't very effective since it is easily picked up by a monitoring NIC. I noticed you brought up the fact that mac filtering isn't very effective but you should make note that hiding the SSID doesn't really help much. Unless the attacker is a complete beginner.
