DIR-100 Triple Play Router
Dynamic IP Address
A Dynamic IP Address connection configures the Router to automatically obtain its global IP address from a
DHCP server on the ISP’s network.
To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection, perform the steps listed below.
Dynamic IP Address connection setup menu
To configure a Dynamic IP Address Internet connection, follow these steps:
1. Click to select the Dynamic IP Address option.
2. Leave the MTU value at the default setting (default = 1500) unless you have specific reasons to
change it.
3. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter when you first
access their network. This can prevent the Router (which has a different MAC address) from being
allowed access to the ISPs network (and the Internet) if the Internet connection has already been
established. To copy the computer’s MAC address to the Router in order to allow access, MAC
cloning should be used. Click to select the Enabled box if MAC Cloning will be used.
4. To clone the computer’s MAC address to the Router, click the Clone MAC Address button.
5. Click on the OK button to save and apply the new Internet connection settings.
