MAC Clone
Some ISPs require that you register a MAC address. This "clones" your network adapter's MAC address
onto the Cable/DSL Firewall Router, and prevents you from having to call your ISP to change the registered
MAC address to the Cable/DSL Firewall Router's MAC address. The Cable/DSL Firewall Router's MAC
address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for identification, like a social security
number.
Input the MAC Address to User Defined WAN MAC Address field or select MAC Address from this PC .
For more information, click the Help button. Click the Save Settings button to save the MAC Clone settings
or click the Cancel button to undo the changes.
DDNS
DDNS(Dynamic DNS) service allows you to assign a fixed domain name to a dynamic WAN IP address.
This allows you to host your own Web, FTP or other type of TCP/IP server in your LAN.
