Reference Manual for the Model Wireless ADSL Firewall Router DG834G 6. Router MAC Address: This section determines the Ethernet MAC address that will be used by the router on the Internet port. 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 router to masquerade as that computer by "cloning" its MAC address. To change the MAC address, select "Use this Computer's MAC address". The router 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. Alternatively, select "Use this MAC address" and enter it. 7. Click Apply to save your settings. 8. Click the Test button to test your Internet connection. If the NETGEAR Web site does not appear within one minute, refer to Chapter 9, "Troubleshooting". ADSL Settings The default settings of your DG834G Wireless ADSL Firewall Router will work fine for most ISPs. However, some ISPs use a specific Multiplexing Method and Virtual Circuit Number for the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI). Note: The correct country must be selected from the Setup Wizard's first page for the default ADSL Settings to work. If your ISP provided you with a specific Multiplexing Method or VPI/VCI number, then fill in the following: 1. Select the ADSL Settings link from the main menu. 2. For the Multiplexing Method, select LLC-based or VC-based. 3. Type a number between 0 and 255 for the VPI. The default is 8. 4. Type a number between 1 and 65535 for the VCI. The default is 35. 5. Click Apply. Connecting the Router to the Internet 202-10006-05, June 2005 3-19
