Router’s MAC Address:
This section determines the Ethernet MAC address that will the router will use on the
Internet port. Some ISPs will register the Ethernet MAC address of the network interface
card in your computer when your account is first opened. They will then only accept
traffic from the MAC address of that computer. This feature allows your router to
masquerade as that computer by “cloning” its MAC address.
To change the MAC address, select
Use Computer MAC Address
. The router will then
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. Or, select
Use this MAC address
and
type it in here.

Note:
If you enter an address here, restart the computers on your network so that
these settings take effect.
