It sounds like the MAC filter wasn't active before, and now you've activated it. Add your laptop's MAC address into the allowed MAC addresses on the router.
If you don't have your username or password, and you can't get into it because of the MAC filter, then you'll have to reset it to factory defaults. Read your manual for instructions on how to do that.
If the laptop is college belongings, you will could desire to have administer rights & probable the passwords to launch any blocked classes on it. the two that or get a ahacker to do it for you. additionally, in the experience that your colleges IT individual is clever, whether you delete your historic previous, there could be a hidden software in there that they could get admission to & inform you what internet site, date/time, how long you have been there, etc.
