Reboot
If you click the
Reboot
link in the
Advanced
screen, the following screen will appear. Rebooting the Router allows
the Router to be restarted. Click
OK
to allow the Router to reboot. Please wait a brief moment while the Router is
rebooting. Afterwards, you will need to log in to the Router.
IMPORTANT:
The
Reboot
feature does not reset the Router to factory default settings. If you want to reset the
Router to factory default settings, follow the instructions in section 15.2, “Restore Defaults.”
15.4
MAC Cloning
If you click the
MAC Cloning
link in the
Advanced
screen, the following screen will appear. A Media Access
Control (MAC) address is a hexadecimal code that identifies a device on a network, such as a router. All networking
devices have a MAC address, and in some cases, your service provider may need you to provide the MAC address of
your network device. If you use MAC Cloning, you can simply enter the MAC address of the “old” Router into your
Verizon Broadband Router, bypassing the need to contact the service provider with “new” MAC Address values (from
the Verizon Broadband Router).
To configure MAC Cloning, enter the MAC Address of the Router you are replacing. Then, click
Apply
to save the
settings.
NOTE:
By default, this screen displays the MAC address of the Verizon Broadband Router. Replace these values
with the MAC address of your “old” Router and click
Apply.
