MAC Address
A MAC (Media Access Control) Address is a
unique hexadecimal identification number
given to each network device.
Some ISPs register your network card’s
MAC Address. If the registered MAC
address does not match that of the
network device connected to their servers
(such as your Wireless AP Router, which
has a different MAC address), connection
will fail. In such situations, copy the MAC
address of your network card to the MAC
Address box.
Contact your ISP if you are unable to
establish a connection even after typing
the correct MAC Address into the MAC
Address box.
