A MAC (Media Access Control) address is a hexadecimal code that identifies a

FiOS Router. To do this:
Click 1. MAC Cloning in the Advanced screen. The “MAC Cloning”
screen appears.
Enter the MAC address to be cloned in the “To Physical Address” text boxes. 2.
Click 3. Clone My MAC Address to capture the MAC address of the computer
currently accessing the FiOS Router’s GUI. The FiOS Router will now have the
new MAC address.
