mac address cloning

I need to clone the mac address of a pc onto my router (it's a d link g604T). However there does not seem to be any obvious way to do this in the router.

Could anyone help please?

thank you kindly - now it seems to give me the choice of 4 types of connection:

dynamic ip address
static ip address
PPPoE/PPPoA
Bridge mode

sorry if this is really obvious stuff but which one do i need to be using?

MAC cloning only works with dynamic IP address. Is this the mode your ISP requires you to use? If you are static IP, PPPoE/PPPoA, or bridge you can't clone the MAC.
