Conguring Your Barricade
for a Dynamic IP Address
1. Select “Dynamic IP address,” and
click “More Conguration.”
Both options on this page for further
conguring your dynamic IP address
are optional, depending upon how
your ISP works. If your ISP does not
require you to change either of these,
you may skip these settings.
The @Home network usually requires your computer to have a
“Host Name” to obtain an IP address from their network.
2. If you have a host name
provided by your ISP (i.e.,
CX-1234-56789) enter it in
the “Host Name” eld.
Some ISPs register the MAC Address of your network card. A MAC
(Media Access Control) Address is a unique identication number (in
hexadecimal digits) given to each networking device. Once registered,
the ISP’s server will check to make sure that the MAC address they
have registered matches the one connecting to their servers. If it does
not match, you cannot connect. The Barricade’s MAC Address will
not be the same as your network card’s address so you may need
the Barricade to “Clone” the address from your network card. Then
the ISP will nd a MAC Address that matches the one they have
recorded.
