WiFi DSL Modem Router MAC Address. The Ethernet MAC address used by the WiFi DSL modem router on the Internet port. Some ISPs register the MAC address of the network interface card in your computer when your account is first opened. They then accept traffic only from the MAC address of that computer. This feature allows your WiFi DSL modem router to use your computer’s MAC address (this procedure is also called cloning).

•Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address.

•Use Computer MAC Address. The WiFi DSL modem router captures and use the MAC address of the computer that you are now using. You have to use the one computer that is allowed by the ISP.

•Use This MAC Address. Enter the MAC address that you want to use.
