Setting the MAC Address

er. In some cases, you may need to change the MAC address of the Telephony Mo-

dem’s WAN port. Follow these steps only if your cable company requires this

change.

the Telephony Modem, click the Clone button.

The Telephony Modem updates the WAN MAC Address field with the MAC

address of your computer.

3 If you need to enter a MAC address manually, enter the hex digits (0-9, a-f)

in the WAN MAC Address field. If you need help determining the MAC ad-

dress, see Finding the MAC Address of a computer
