How do I clone a MAC address on my USR5461/USR5465?Some Internet Service Providers secure their networks by only allowing the primary computer of the household to connect. It is still possible to share your Internet connection with the router using the Clone MAC function. Every piece of computer hardware has a unique, hardwired Media Access Control (MAC) address. Your ISP can use the MAC address of the network adapter in your computer to restrict access to the Internet to only that one computer. When you activate the Clone MAC feature of the router, it will behave as though its MAC address is the same as the computer you were working from when you activated it.
