MTU Size
The MTU (Maximum Transmit Unit) is the size of the largest packet that can be sent over the network. The standard MTU value for Ethernet networks is usually 1500 Bytes and for PPPoE connections, it is 1492 Bytes. Unless a change is required by your ISP, it is recommended that the MTU values be left as is.
Router's MAC Address
Similar to other Ethernet devices, the router has its own 48-bit local Ethernet address, also referred to as the MAC (Media Access Control) address. The default is set to Use default address. If your ISP requires MAC authentication and another MAC address has been previously registered with your ISP, then select either Use this Computer's MAC address to assign the MAC address of the computer through which you are accessing the router, or select Use This MAC Address and manually type in the MAC address expected by your ISP. The format for the MAC address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX where X is a number from 0 to 9 (inclusive) or an alphabetical letter between A and F (inclusive).
