Clone a MAC address

Main > WAN
On any home network, each network device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control)
address. Some ISPs register the MAC address of the device (usually a router or a
computer) connected directly to the modem. If your computer MAC address is already
registered with your ISP and to prevent the re-provisioning and registration process of a
new MAC address with your ISP, then you can clone the address (assign the registered
MAC address of your previous device to your new router). If you want to use the MAC
address from the previous device (computer or old router that directly connected to the
modem, you should first determine the MAC address of the device or computer and
manually enter it into your router using the clone MAC address feature.
Note: For many ISPs that provide dynamic IP addresses automatically, typically, the
stored MAC address in the modem is reset each time you restart the modem. If you are
installing this router for the first time, turn your modem before connecting the router to
your modem. To clear your modem stored MAC address, typically the procedure is to
disconnect power from the modem for approximately one minute, then reconnect the
power. For more details on this procedure, refer to your modem's User Guide/Manual or
contact your ISP.
