Step 4
Configuring your N1 Vision for Connection to your
Internet Service Provider (ISP)
The “Internet/WAN” tab is where you will set up your N1 Vision to
connect to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The N1 Vision is
capable of connecting to virtually any ISP’s system provided you have
correctly configured the N1 Vision’s settings for your ISP’s connection
type. Your ISP connection settings are provided to you by your ISP.
To configure the N1 Vision with the settings that your ISP gave you,
click “Connection Type”
(A)
on the left side of the screen. Select
the connection type you use. If your ISP gave you DNS settings,
clicking “DNS”
(B)
allows you to enter DNS address entries for ISPs
that require specific settings. Clicking “MAC Address”
(C)
will let you
clone your computer’s MAC address or type in a specific WAN MAC
address, if required by your ISP. When you have finished making
settings, the “Internet Status” indicator will read “connection OK” if
your N1 Vision is set up properly.

Setting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) Connection
Type to Dynamic IP
A dynamic connection type is the most common connection type found with
cable modems. Setting the connection type to “dynamic” in many cases is
enough to complete the connection to your ISP. Some dynamic connection
types may require a host name. You can enter your host name in the space
provided if you were assigned one. Your host name is assigned by your ISP.
Some dynamic connections may require that you clone the MAC address of
the PC that was originally connected to the modem.

Host Name
This space is provided to enter a host name that needs to be
visible to your ISP. Enter your host name here and click “Apply
Changes”

. If your ISP did not assign you a host name, or you
are not sure, leave this blank.
2.
Change WAN MAC Address
If your ISP requires a specific MAC address to connect to the
service, you can enter a specific MAC address or clone the
current computer’s MAC address through this link.
