the MAC address of the computer that was used to initially register the ISP account.
If your ISP does require that you do this, you must change the modem router MAC
address that the modem router uses. For more information, see one of the following
sections:
• Manually Set Up an ADSL Internet Connection
• Manually Set Up a VDSL Internet Connection
• Manually Set Up a Cable or Fiber Internet Connection

configured to receive an IP address automatically with DHCP. (For most devices,
DHCP is the default setting.)
