- Get Automatically from ISP. Your ISP uses DHCP to assign your DNS servers. Your
ISP automatically assigns this address.
- Use These DNS Servers. If you know that your ISP requires specific servers, select
this option. Enter the IP address of your ISP's primary DNS server. If a secondary
DNS server address is available, enter it also.
• NAT (Network Address Translation). NAT allows computers on your home network to
share the modem router Internet connection. NAT is enabled by default because it is
needed in most situations. The following settings are available:
- Enable
- Disable
- Disable Firewall
• Router MAC Address. The Ethernet MAC address that the modem router uses on the
Internet port. Some ISPs register the MAC address of the network interface card in your
computer when your account is first opened. They accept traffic only from the MAC
address of that computer. This feature allows your modem router to use your computer's
MAC address (also called cloning).
- Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address.
- Use Computer MAC Address. The modem router captures and uses the MAC
address of the computer that you are now using. You have to use the one
computer that the ISP allows.
- Use This MAC Address. Enter the MAC address that you want to use.

Basic Wireless Setup

The Wireless Setup screen lets you view or configure the wireless network setup.
The modem router comes with preset security. This means that the Wi-Fi network name
(SSID), network key (password), and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the
factory. You can find the preset SSID and password on the bottom of the unit.
Note: The preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every
device to protect and maximize your wireless security.
NETGEAR recommends that you do not change your preset security
your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe place
where you can easily find it.
If you use a wireless computer to change the wireless network name (SSID) or other wireless
security settings, you are disconnected when you click Apply. To avoid this problem, use a
computer with a wired connection to access the modem router.
