Setting your ISP Connection Type to Dynamic IP
A dynamic connection type is the most common connection type
found 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.

(1) Host Name
This space is provided to enter a host name that needs to be visible
to your ISP. Enter your host name here and click "Apply Changes"
If your ISP did not assign you a host name, or you are not sure, leave
this blank.
(2) 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.
(4) Release/Renew Buttons
Assuming that you have already obtained an IP address from your
ISP, clicking the "Release" button will release the IP address and
disconnect the Router from the Internet. Clicking the "Renew" button
will request a new IP address from your ISP and connect the Router
to the Internet.
