10/100 16-Port VPN Router
Setup Tab - MAC Clone
Some ISPs require that you register a MAC address, which is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of
hardware for identification. The MAC Clone feature “clones” your network adapter's MAC address onto the
Router, so you don’t have to call your ISP to change the registered MAC address to the Router's MAC address.
The MAC Clone table displays the number of WAN ports you have configured on the Network or Port Management
screen. Their MAC addresses are shown in the MAC Address column. Click the Edit in the Config. column to edit
the MAC Clone setting of the selected WAN port. A new screen will appear.
In the Interface field, the WAN port number is displayed. To manually clone a MAC address, select User Defined
WAN MAC Address, and then enter the 12 digits of your adapter’s MAC address. If you want to clone the MAC
address of the PC you are currently using to configure the Router, then select MAC Address from this PC.
Click the Save Settings button to save your changes, or click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes.
Click the Back button to return to the previous page if you want to configure the other WAN ports.
