Buffalo Technology WZR-G108 Gathering Information, Recording the AirStation’s LAN MAC Address

Step 1 - Gathering Information

Depending on the type of broadband internet service you are subscribed to, different types of information may be needed to complete the setup. Acquiring this information in advance will make the setup of your AirStation router simple and quick. A quick call to your service provider’s customer or technical support number will provide you with the needed information if you are unsure. If you are connecting to the internet via DSL service, then PPPoE information will most likely be required from your ISP.

Recording the AirStation’s LAN MAC Address

The LAN MAC address of the AirStation is the default ESS-ID (SSID) and is found on the bottom of the AirStation body as shown in the illustration above.

MAC Addresses are 12-digit codes comprised of numbers and letters. When inputting MAC Addresses for custom configurations, a semi-colon (:) is used to separate every two digits. ex: 00:07:40:00:00:00
