Clone a MAC address

Main > WAN

On any home network, each network device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. Some ISPs register the MAC address of the device (usually a router or a computer) connected directly to the modem. If your computer MAC address is already registered with your ISP and to prevent the re-provisioning and registration process of a new MAC address with your ISP, then you can clone the address (assign the registered MAC address of your previous device to your new router). If you want to use the MAC address from the previous device (computer or old router that directly connected to the modem, you should first determine the MAC address of the device or computer and manually enter it into your router using the clone MAC address feature.

Note: For many ISPs that provide dynamic IP addresses automatically, typically, the stored MAC address in the modem is reset each time you restart the modem. If you are installing this router for the first time, turn your modem before connecting the router to your modem. To clear your modem stored MAC address, typically the procedure is to disconnect power from the modem for approximately one minute, then reconnect the power. For more details on this procedure, refer to your modem’s User Guide/Manual or contact your ISP.

1.Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page” on page 27).

2.Click on Main, and click on WAN.

3.Under your Internet connection settings, find the MAC Address section shown below.

4.Click either Clone MAC Address to clone the MAC address of the computer you are currently using or manually enter the 12-digit MAC address of your old router.

5.To save changes, click Apply.
