Enabling multiple MAC support allows more than one MAC to connect to a single package. Perfect for events, campgrounds, marinas - anywhere short-term access can be profitable. To set the number of MACs allowed to connect to the network from the Ultimate Back Office software, go to ISP Settings > Billing > Packages > [Package Name] > Options > Multiple MACs. To authenticate multiple unique devices within a 24-hour period, click the Allow MACs to authenticate within a 24 hour period checkbox below the field labeled "Multiple MACs" and enter the number of allowed devices.
- The default value is 5 devices.
