specified by the subnet mask) is different from the network address of the remote device.
• Check that your cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning.
• If your ISP assigned a host name to your computer, enter that host name as the account
name in the Basic Settings screen.
• Your ISP could be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your computers.
Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of
your broadband modem, but some ISPs additionally restrict access to the MAC address
of a single computer connected to that modem. If this is the case, you need to configure
your router to "clone" or "spoof" the MAC address from the authorized computer.
