The <b>MAC Clone</b> section is used to change the router's WAN MAC address. You can change the MAC address by entering a new custom value in the <i>WAN MAC address</i> field or click the 'Get PC MAC address' button to obtain your PC's MAC address and use it to fill the field.

In some cases access to a local network is protected by a MAC filter. For example, your company's main router may bind the MAC addresses of devices to the physical Internet sockets they usually connect to. In these cases only the device that is bound to the socket may gain access to the network. You can use MAC Clone to "clone" your PCs address and apply it to your router's WAN Ethernet port to gain access to such networks.
