|
Domain Name Server | The DNS server is used to look up site addresses based on their names. |
(DNS) Address | • Get Automatically from ISP. Your ISP uses DHCP to assign your DNS |
| servers. Your ISP automatically assigns this address. |
| • Use These DNS Servers. If you know that your ISP does not |
| automatically transmit DNS addresses to the modem during login, select |
| this option, and enter the IP address of your ISP’s primary DNS server. If a |
| secondary DNS server address is available, enter it also. |
|
|
Router MAC Address | The Ethernet MAC address that will be used by the modem on the Internet |
| port. Some ISPs register the Ethernet MAC address of the network interface |
| card in your computer when your account is first opened. They will then |
| accept traffic only from the MAC address of that computer. This feature |
| allows your modem to masquerade as that computer by “cloning” its MAC |
| address. |
| • Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address. |
| • Use Computer MAC Address. The modem will capture and use the MAC |
| address of the computer that you are now using. You must be using the |
| one computer that is allowed by the ISP. |
| • Use This MAC Address. Enter the MAC address that you want to use. |
