Manually Configuring your Modem
Clone MAC Address
Clicking on the Clone MAC Address brings up the following screen.
Some ISPs may require that you register your MAC address with them. If this is the case, the MAC address of the Modem must be changed manually to the MAC address that you have registered with your ISP. Most ISP’s in Australia and New Zealand do not require this option.
LAN
Use the LAN (Local Area Network) menu to configure the LAN IP address and to enable the DHCP server for dynamic client address allocation.
