Secure Cable/DSL Router 7
Some BSPs use an Ethernet adapter’s MAC address as an identifier to provide
Internet service. In these cases you need to clone the Ethernet adapters MAC
address to the BroadGuard. At the BroadGuard, disconnect the Ethernet cables
from the other PCs on the network, leaving only the PC with the Ethernet adapter
that you wish to register connected.
Note: If you previously used a registered MAC address to connect to your
broadband service, you need to clone this Ethernet adapter’s MAC address to the
BroadGuard.
Network Extension
If you want to connect more users to your network, or use a wireless connection
through the BroadGuard, refer to the following section:
Wired LAN Extension
This section describes how to extend your BroadGuard LAN using one of our
SOHOware Home series products, e.g. a 10Mbps or 10/100Mbps Ethernet
Hub/Switch.
Easy two-step installation procedure:
step1. Set the Uplink port of the external hub/switch to the Uplink position
step2. Use standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable to connect any BroadGuard LAN
port to the Uplink port of the hub/switch. If the device does not feature
an Uplink switch, use a cross-over cable
