Setting the Router’s MAC Address
Each computer or router on your network has a unique 48-bit local Ethernet address. This is also 
referred to as the computer's MAC (Media Access Control) address. The default is set to Use 
Default Address
. If your ISP requires MAC authentication and another MAC address has been 
previously registered with your ISP, then you must enter that address. Setting the router’s MAC 
address is controlled through the Advanced options on the WAN1 ISP Settings and WAN2 ISP

Manually Configuring Your Internet Connection
If you know your ISP connection type, you can bypass the Auto Detect feature and connect your 
router manually. Ensure that you have all of the relevant connection information such as IP 
Addresses, account information, type of ISP connection, etc., before you begin. Unless your ISP 
automatically assigns your configuration automatically via DHCP, you will need the configuration 
parameters from your ISP (see 
).
To manually configure your WAN1 ISP Settings:
1. Does your Internet connection require a login? If you need to enter login information every 
time you connect to the Internet through your ISP, select Yes. Otherwise, select No. 
2. What type of IPS connection do you use? If your connection is PPPoE, PPTP or BigPond 
Cable, then you must login. Check the Yes radio box. The text box fields that require data 
entry will be highlighted, based on the connection that you selected. If your ISP has not 
assigned any login information, then choose the No radio box and skip this section. For 
example:
Austria (PPTP): If your ISP is Austria Telecom or any other ISP that uses PPTP for login, 
select this. Then, fill in the following highlighted fields: 
Note: To enable a WAN port to respond to a Ping from the Internet, use the Rules menu
