Check to see that the IP address of your modem router is listed as the default router in your computer. If the IP
configuration of your computer is assigned by DHCP, this information is not visible in your computer’s Network
Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the modem router is listed as the default router.
Check to see that the network address of your computer (the portion of the IP address specified by the netmask)
is different from the network address of the remote device.
If your ISP assigned a host name to your computer, enter that host name as the account name. For more
information, see one of the following sections:

Your ISP might be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your computers.
Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of your modem, but some
additionally restrict access to the MAC address of a single computer connected to that modem. In this case,
configure your modem router to clone or spoof the MAC address from the authorized computer. For more
information, see one of the following sections:
