Configuring Your Internet Connection 1-7
v1.0, May 2009
Changing Your ADSL Settings
The default ADSL settings of your modem router work fine for most ISPs. However, some ISPs
use a specific multiplexing method and virtual circuit number for the virtual path identifier (VPI)
and virtual channel identifier (VCI).
If your ISP provided you with a multiplexing method or VPI/VCI number, then enter the setting:
1. From the main menu, select ADSL Settings.
2. In the Multiplexing Method drop-down list, select LLC-based or VC-based. The default is
LLC-based.

no login is
required.
Router MAC Address The Ethernet MAC address that will be used by the modem
router 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 router to masquerade as that computer by
“cloning” its MAC address.
• Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address.
• Use Computer MAC Address. The modem router 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.
a. Disable NAT only if you plan to install the modem router in a setting where you will be manually administering the IP address
space on the LAN side of the router.
Note: For information about how to install ADSL filters, see the NETGEAR Router Setup
Manual.
Note: You must use the Setup Wizard to select the correct country for the default ADSL
settings to work. The default settings are set for Telkom ADSL.
