Internet

MAC Address

The MAC Address of the Internet interface is displayed here.


Host Name

and Domain Name These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the

Router. Some ISPs, usually cable ISPs, require these names as identification. You may have to
check with your ISP to see if your broadband Internet service has been configured with a host and
domain name. In most cases, leaving these fields blank will work.

Configuration Type

The Router supports four connection types: DHCP Auto Config, Static IP,

PPPoE, and PPTP. Each Setup screen and available features will differ depending on what kind of
connection type you select.

MAC Cloning

The Router's MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of

hardware for identification. Some ISPs require that you register the MAC address of your network
card/adapter, which was connected to your cable or DSL modem during installation. If your ISP
requires MAC address registration, find your adapter’s MAC address by following the instructions
for your PC’s operating system.

For Windows 98 and Millennium:
1. Click the Start button, and select Run.

2. Type winipcfg in the field provided, and press the OK key.

3. Select the Ethernet adapter you are using.

4. Click More Info.

5. Write down your adapter's MAC address.

For Windows 2000 and XP:
1. Click the Start button, and select Run.

2. Type cmd in the field provided, and press the OK key.

3. At the command prompt, run ipconfig /all, and look at your adapter’s physical address.

4. Write down your adapter's MAC address.

To clone your network adapter's MAC address onto the Router and avoid calling your ISP to
change the registered MAC address, follow these instructions:

1. Select Enable.

2. Enter your adapter's MAC address in the MAC Address field.

3. Click the Apply button.

To disable MAC address cloning, keep the default setting, Disable
