ENABLING MAC ADDRESS SPOOFING
Some ISPs require you to have a single MAC address to connect
to the Internet. (The MAC address is a unique hardware
address assigned to each PC; MAC addresses are a six-part
44
character code separated by dashes or colons.) With MAC
address spoofing, you can configure the router to transmit data
using the MAC address that the ISP expects.
Follow the steps below to enable MAC address spoofing:
1. Open a browser window and login to the router.
2. In the menu at the left side of the screen, click Basic
Configuration , then WAN , then MAC Address Spoofing .
This displays the MAC Spoofing screen (see Figure 14).

3. Click Enable to turn on the MAC spoofing feature.
4. To have the router use the MAC address of the PC you are
currently using, click Spoof this PC MAC Address and then
click Execute . The router will automatically obtain the MAC
address from the computer you are using and enter it into
the MAC address field.
5. To manually enter a specific MAC address, click Manually
enter MAC Address , then enter the MAC address. Be
sure to enter the six separate parts of the MAC address into
the six separate boxes in the field.
