Reference Manual for the ADSL Modem Wireless Router DG834G
Configuring Your Internet Connection 3-19
v1.2, October 2006
7. Modem Router MAC Address:
This section determines the Ethernet MAC address that will be used by the modem 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 modem router to
masquerade as that computer by “cloning” its MAC address.
To change the MAC address, select “Use this Computers MAC address”. The modem 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.
8. Click Apply to save your settings.
9. Click Test 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 54 Mbps ADSL Modem Wireless Router Model DG834G 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).
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.
Note: The correct country must be selected from the Setup Wizard’s first page for the
default ADSL Settings to work.
