Setting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) Connection Type to Dynamic IP
A dynamic connection type is the most common connection type used
with cable modems. Setting the connection type to "dynamic" in many
cases is enough to complete the connection to your ISP. Some dynamic
connection types may require a host name. You can enter your host name
in the space provided if you were assigned one. Your host name is assigned
by your ISP. Some dynamic connections may require that you clone the
MAC address of the PC that was originally connected to the modem.
Change WAN MAC Address
If your ISP requires a specific MAC address to connect to the service,
you can enter a specific MAC address or clone the current computer's
MAC address through this link.
