The Setup Tab - MAC Address Clone
A MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for identification, like a social
security number. Some ISPs will require you to register a MAC address in order to access the Internet. If you do
not wish to re-register the MAC address with your ISP, you may assign the MAC address you have currently
registered with your ISP to the Router with the MAC Address Clone feature.
