Setting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) Connection Type to Dynamic IP

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 (1)

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 (2)

you can enter a specific MAC address or clone the current computer’s

MAC address through this link°
