If you are connecting the router to the modem instead, you must select the check box for Device MAC Address and enter the WAN MAC address of the router (found in the Device Status and Device Information pages).

Note: Do not enter the colons between the numbers, as the fields are already separated within the page.

Note: If you have a single computer attached to the Cable/DSL mo- dem, you may also use your computer’s network adapter card MAC Address to allow access to the Internet. Find your card’s MAC Ad- dress from Windows 98/Me by running winipcfg, or from Windows 2000/NT by running ipconfig /all. To find a Macintosh's Ethernet MAC address, select "Get Info” from the File menu of either the AppleTalk or TCP/IP Control Panel. Again, do not enter the colons that appear within the MAC address, as the fields are already sepa- rated within the page.
