Not fully convinced I understand your question - guess you want to use the new router using the WAN/Internet adapter MAC address, because some ISP bind the ISP has locked the CPE to a single MAC address.
This is not possible with the Nighthawk app - login using a web browser to the R8000.

10. Select a Router MAC Address radio button:
• Use Default Address. Use the default MAC address.
• Use Computer MAC Address. The router captures and uses the MAC address of the
computer that you are now using. You must use the one computer that the ISP allows.
• Use This MAC Address. Enter the MAC address that you want to use.---
