This is not always necessary, but may be required for some ISPs. Type

 

in the MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter in the MAC

 

Address field and click the Clone MAC Address button. This will copy

 

the information to a file used by the Router to present to the ISP’s

 

server used for DHCP. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of

 

your computer’s Ethernet adapter when you first access their network.

 

If you want to later replace the cloned MAC address with the factory

 

default setting, type in all zeros – 0:0:0:0:0:0 – and click the Clone

 

MAC Address button.

MTU

The Maximum Transmission Unit size may be changed if you want to

 

optimize efficiency for uploading data through the WAN interface. The

 

default setting (1500 bytes) should be suitable for most users. Some

 

user may want to adjust the setting to optimize performance for

 

wireless traffic or when low latency is desired (such as with Internet

 

gaming). It is highly recommended that the user research how

 

adjusting the MTU may affect network traffic for better or worse.
