MAC Clone
Some ISPs require you to register a MAC address. This "clones" your network adap ter's MAC address onto
the Cable/DSL Firewall Router, and prevents you from having to call your IS P to change the registered MAC
address to the Cable/DSL Firewall Router's MAC address. The Cable/DSL Firewall Router's MAC address is
a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for ide ntification, like a social security number.
