6.2.2 | WAN
Specify the WAN connection type provided by your Internet Service Provider, then click “More
Configuration” to enter detailed configuration parameters for the selected connection type.
• Dynamic IP
The Host Name is optional, but it may be required by some ISPs. The default MAC address is
set to the WAN’s physical interface on the Barricade. Use this address when registering for
Internet service, and do not change it unless required by your ISP. If your ISP used the MAC
address of an Ethernet card as an identifier when first setting up your broadband account,
connect only the PC with the registered MAC address to the Barricade and click the “Clone
MAC Address” button. This will replace the current Barricade MAC address with the already
registered Ethernet card MAC address.
If you are unsure of which PC did the broadband technician originally set up, call your ISP
and request they register a new MAC address for your account. Register using the
Barricade’s MAC address.
