Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P If your ISP allows access from only one specific computer's Ethernet MAC address, select "Use this MAC address." The firewall will then capture and use the MAC address of the computer that you are now using. You must be using the one computer that is allowed by the ISP. Otherwise, you can type in a MAC address. Note: Some ISPs will register the Ethernet MAC address of the network interface card in your computer when your account is first opened. They will then only accept traffic from the MAC address of that computer. This feature allows your firewall to masquerade as that computer by using its MAC address. 4.
