The MAC address can be set to default (a pre-programmed registered unique MAC address) or can be manually entered. If manual
selected, then tap on the MAC address to enter your desired MAC address.
Once these settings are completed, press Connect. Once connect is pressed, the test set will go directly to the result page. Each
step of the connection process is listed. As a step is performed, an "in progress" indicator informs the user of the current status.
After a step is completed, a Pass or Fail status is provided. If any one of the steps fails during the connection process, the cable
modem will stop and declare a failed connection. At this point the user can either choose to reset the test and try again or go back
to setup and verify the settings.
