adapter of your computer has a unique code called a MAC
address. Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) require you
to register this address with them 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 Router with the
MAC Address Clone feature.
