• 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.
14. Select a Router MAC Address radio button:
A MAC address is a unique 12-digit hexadecimal number that identifies each network
device. A device's MAC address always stays the same. It does not change the way
an IP address can.
• Use Default Address. Use the default AP MAC address that displays on the
Dashboard page and is on the AP label.
• Use Computer MAC Address. The AP captures and uses the MAC address of
the computer that you are now using to change the settings. Sometimes an ISP
allows the MAC address of a particular computer only.
• Use This MAC Address. Enter a MAC address that must be used. Sometimes an
ISP allows the MAC address of a particular computer only.

Specify a PPTP or L2TP Internet connection that uses a login
[router mode]
Usually, the quickest way to set up a PPTP or L2TP Internet connection is to allow the
Setup Wizard to detect the Internet connection when you go through the initial log-in
process as described in Connect the AP to a modem and log in for the first time on
page 28 or, after initial setup, in Use the Setup Wizard [router mode] on page 41.
After you install the AP and it is in router mode, you can manually specify the PPTP or
L2TP Internet connection or change them. (These PPTP and L2TP settings are not
required if the AP is operating in AP mode.)
