A MAC address is a unique 12-digit hexadecimal number that identifies each network
device. A device’s MAC address always stays the same. It does not change the way
an IP address can.
• Use Default Address: Use the default AP MAC address that displays on the
Dashboard page and is on the AP label.
• Use Computer MAC Address: The AP captures and uses the MAC address of
the computer that you are now using to change the settings. Sometimes an ISP
allows the MAC address of a particular computer only.
• Use This MAC Address: Enter a MAC address that must be used. Sometimes an
ISP allows the MAC address of a particular computer only.
