•Router MAC Address. The Ethernet MAC address used by the 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 accept traffic only from the MAC address of that computer. This feature allows your router to use your computer’s MAC address (this situation is also called spoofing or cloning). Select one of the following radio buttons:
-Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address.
-Use Computer MAC Address. The router captures and uses the MAC address of the computer that you are now using to configure the router. To configure the router, use the computer that is registered with the ISP.
-Use This MAC Address. Enter the MAC address that you want to use.
