| If the computer has both a 10/100BaseT Ethernet port, and a Wireless interface, then it |
|
| will have a different MAC address for each. The MAC address is also called the |
|
| “Physical Address”. This address is obtained by checking the Properties for the desired |

| interface, but the provided Set to my PC buttons make this unnecessary. |

|
| the fields below. If this checkbox is enabled, and the password fields left blank, then the |
