I am new to wireless and would like to know how to set up MAC filtering. I have the TrendNet 639GR router but in the MAC filter area it looks like it only has room for one MAC address; I want to add two or three. How do I do this? Thanks.

I would suggest to enter a MAC address in that field and apply the settings.
Then enter the next MAC address, or choose one of the list of clients that are already connected to the router and got a ip address from the router via DHCP.

This can normally read in the users manual or users guide of the router.

There's only room for one MAC address! You mean I have to add one, then go back and add another one?

Make sure you are not on the wan interface clone workstation mac address.

What you want is the dhcp reservation list. mentioned on Page 16 of the manual. This unit also has wireless mac filtering for the wireless access on page 23.
