MAC Address Clone on RV215W

Objective

Some of the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) require a MAC address to register the device, which is a 12-digit hexadecimal code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for identification. If the user has registered a different MAC address previously, the clone feature enables the user to link registered MAC address to the RV215W router, avoiding the trouble in contacting the ISP to change the MAC address.

This article explains how to clone a MAC address on the RV215W.

Applicable Devices

• RV215W

Software Version
