MAC Address

Assigned By

Select IP address attached on LAN if you want the ZyXEL Device to use the 

MAC address of another computer, instead of its default MAC address. You 

might try this if you lose your Internet connection because some ISPs check the 

MAC address of the device connected to the Internet. Otherwise, select 

Factory default.

IP Address

If you select IP address attached on LAN in the Assigned By field, enter the 

IP address of the computer whose MAC address you want the ZyXEL Device to 

use.
