setting Custom domain Name server (dNs) settings
A "Domain Name Server" is a server located on the Internet that
translates Universal Resource Locaters (URLs) like "www.belkin.com" to
IP addresses. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) do not require you
to enter this information into the Router. The "Automatic from ISP" box (1)
should be checked if your ISP did not give you a specific DNS address.
If you are using a static IP connection type, then you may need to enter a
specific DNS address and secondary DNS address for your connection
to work properly. If your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely
that you do not have to enter a DNS address. Leave the "Automatic
from ISP" box checked. To enter the DNS address settings, uncheck
the "Automatic from ISP" box and enter your DNS entries in the spaces
provided. Click "Apply Changes" (2) to save the settings.

Configuring your WaN Media access Controller (MaC) address
All network components including cards, adapters, and routers, have
a unique "serial number" called a MAC address. Your Internet Service
Provider (ISP) may record the MAC address of your computer's adapter
and only let that particular computer connect to the Internet service.
When you install the Router, its own MAC address will be "seen" by the
ISP and may cause the connection not to work. Belkin has provided
the ability to clone (copy) the MAC address of the computer into the
Router. This MAC address, in turn, will be seen by the ISP's system as
the original MAC address and will allow the connection to work. If you
are not sure whether your ISP needs to see the original MAC address,
simply clone the MAC address of the computer that was originally
connected to the modem. Cloning the address will not cause any
problems with your network.
Cloning your MaC address
To clone your MAC address, make sure that you are using the computer
that was ORIGINALLY CONNECTED to your modem before the Router
was installed. Click the "Clone" button (1). Click "Apply Changes" (3).
Your MAC address is now cloned to the Router.
