The Default Internet Connection type is Dynamic or DHCP IP. Most cable modem ISPs use this type
of connection.
Host Name: The Host Name is optional, but it may be required by some ISPs.
MAC Address: A MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for
identification. Some ISPs will require you to register a MAC address in order to access the Internet.
If you do not wish to re-register the MAC address with your ISP, you may assign the MAC address
you have currently registered with your ISP to the Barricade by clicking the [Clone MAC Address]
button.
NOTE: If you are unsure of which PC the broadband connection originally set up, contact your ISP
and request they register a new MAC address for your account. Register using the Barricade’s MAC
address which can be found on the STATUS page.
