LevelOne FBR-1406TX User Manual

Choose Cable Modem if your ISP will automatically give you an IP address. Some ISP’s may also 
require that you fill in additional information such as Host Name and MAC address (see screen 
below).  
 
Note: The Host Name and MAC address section is optional and you can skip this section if your 
ISP does not require these settings for you to connect to the Internet.

 

 

 

 
Parameters 

  Description 

Host Name 

If your ISP requires a Host Name, type in the host name 
provided by your ISP, otherwise leave it blank if your ISP does 
not require a Host Name.

 

 
MAC Address 

Your ISP may require a particular MAC address in order for you 
to connect to the Internet. This MAC address is the PC’s MAC 
address that your ISP had originally connected your Internet 
connection to. Type in this MAC address in this section or use 
the Clone MAC Address button to replace the WAN MAC 
address with the MAC address of that PC (you have to be using 
that PC for the Clone MAC Address button to work). If necessary, 
you can use the Release and Renew buttons to release and 
renew the WAN IP address. To find out the PC’s MAC address 
see Appendix A. (see Glossary for an explanation on MAC 
address)
