Mac Address Question
Last response: in Networking
Hello,
I was wondering about something and thought you guys could answer this for me.![:)]( ":)")
I understand ISP's keep a MAC address on file for your account. I am not sure if Charter does this or not.
What my question is what MAC address do they actually keep on file?
Initially when I had Charter come out and setup my connection, it was their cable modem to my PC. Very shortly after, I got a wireless router hooked up with the modem and now other devices going through the wireless router. I have some devices connected wirelessly and others just hard wire directly into the router itself.
As I said, my main question is what MAC address is stored with your ISP? The cable modem's, routers, or what? I read somewhere that it is the first device connected to the network, so that would mean it would be the modem right or can you make a case for the router?
My other question was if there is a way to change what MAC address they have on file for you? Would that be by just getting your own cable modem or router?
