Aspects of a method and system for network infrastructure offload traffic filtering are disclosed and may include a networked device, or station, which may communicate one or more filters to an infrastructure networking device. The infrastructure networking device may utilize the filters to implement filtering rules upon traffic received by the infrastructure networking device on behalf of the station. Based on the filters, the infrastructure networking device may determine whether to transmit received traffic to the station via a network, or whether to discard received traffic. The infrastructure networking device may perform traffic shaping based on the filters.
