Configuring the MAC Address

The Cisco RV180/RV180W has a unique 48-bit local Ethernet hardware address.
In most cases, the default MAC address is used to identify your Cisco RV180/
RV180W to your ISP. However, you can change this setting if required by your ISP.
To configure the MAC address settings:
Choose Networking > WAN (Internet) > IPv4 WAN (Internet).
From the MAC Address Source drop-down menu, choose one of these options:
• Use Default Address—(Recommended) choose this option to use the
default MAC address. However, if another MAC address has previously been
registered with your ISP, choose either Use This Computer's Address or Use
This MAC.
• Use This Computer's Address—Choose this option to assign the MAC
address of your computer that you are using to connect to the Device
Manager.
• Use This MAC—Choose this option if you want to enter a different MAC
address. Enter the address in the MAC Address field.
Click Save.

Configuring PPPoE Profiles

If you have a PPPoE connection to the Internet, you can create profiles for multiple
PPPoE accounts. This can be useful if you connect to the Internet using different
service provider accounts. The PPPoE Profiles page lists the available PPPoE
profiles and some attributes associated with each profile. To edit a PPPoE profile
listed in the Profile Table, select the profile and click Edit. To delete selected
profiles, click Delete.
