MAC Spoofing

MAC Spoofing allows you to specify the MAC address that is presented
to your ISP from the Connection Point. Some ISPs track the MAC address
of devices that connect to them.

Note: MAC (media access control) Address is a unique hardware address that

identifies each node of a network.

The MAC address of the PC previously connected to your ISP may be
registered with that ISP. To avoid any connection problems, activate the
Connection Point MAC Spoofing functionality.

1. Ensure that the PC with the MAC Address to emulate is connected to

your CP-2E.

2. Open a web browser. Type cp.home into the Address field and press

Enter. You may also type in the base address, which is 192.168.1.1.

3. Click Advanced Setting icon.

4. Click MAC Spoofing on the left.

5. Click on Enable.

6. Click Network Computer List.
