A MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique
piece of hardware for identification. Some ISPs will require
you to register a MAC address in order to access the
Internet. If you do not wish to re-register the MAC address
with your ISP, you may assign the MAC address you have
currently registered with your ISP to the Router with the
MAC Address Clone feature.

connection to the Internet, keep the default, Enabled. If
another router exists on your network, select Disabled.

enabled.
Dynamic Routing (RIP)
Enabled/Disabled This feature enables the Router to
automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s
layout and exchange routing tables with the other
router(s). The Router determines the network packets’
route based on the fewest number of hops between
the source and the destination. When the NAT setting is
enabled, the Dynamic Routing feature is automatically
disabled. When the NAT setting is disabled, this feature
is available. Select Enabled to use the Dynamic Routing
feature.
Static Routing
A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network
information must travel to reach a specific host or network.
