establish Internet connection.
Please do not modify the MAC address field

Click <OK> to finish the Cable modem configuration. Now, you have completed the
configuration for the Cable Modem connection. You can start Internet access now, if you'd
like to use the advance features in XRT, please refer to the related chapters in this manual.
Note
If your ISP requires a Host Name, type in the host name
provided by your ISP, otherwise leave it blank if your ISP does
not require a Host Name.
Your ISP may require a particular MAC address in order for
you to connect to the Internet. This MAC address is the PC's
MAC address that your ISP had originally connected your
Internet connection to. Type in this MAC address in this section
or use the Clone MAC Address button to replace the WAN
MAC address with the MAC address of that PC (you have to be
using that PC for the Clone MAC Address button to work). If
necessary, you can use the Release and Renew buttons to
release and renew the WAN IP address.
In most circumstances, machine will work
well without inputting Host Name and MAC
address field in Cable Modem settings,
please skip this section if your ISP does
not require these settings for Internet
access.
