Next you must configure your DVG-1402S and PC. If you are using a DSL Modem with a PPPoE or DHCP connection, you will need to continue on to the following section. If you are using a Cable Modem, and your service provider requires a MAC address, skip this section and refer to the section titled “MAC Cloning for Cable Connection.” Also be sure to change your computer’s IP settings to DHCP (to automatically be assigned an IP address from the DVG- 1402S) regardless of what type of internet connection you have.
