  Some ISPs may recognize your account using the LAN card MAC address on your PC that you used to access the Internet before the router 

was installed. In this case, you have to copy the LAN card MAC address in the MAC address field. For WIN 95/98/Me, you can run winipcfg 

to see the LAN card MAC address. For WIN 2000/NT/XP, you can run “ipconfig/all” to see the LAN card MAC address. 

If your Wireless Broadband Router acts as a DHCP Server and assigns IP address in-
formation to other PCs on your LAN, then you may need to configure DNS Server IP 
addresses in the router that are transferred to these DHCP clients. Note that these ad-
dresses are often configured automatically. Your ISP will tell you whether you need to 
configure these addresses. 
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the technique that is used on the Internet to trans-
late names like “www.ebay.com” to IP addresses like 209.103.14.2. In order to do this, a 
query is made to special DNS servers in the Internet that provide this information. Often, 
the addresses of these machines are sent to the router automatically when it logs into 
the ISP. However, there may be instances where this is not done, or where special ad-
dresses are required.   
If your ISP requires you to manually enter DNS Server addresses, you can enter these 
addresses on this page. Up to two DNS server IP addresses may be entered.
