Worth pointing out that the registration of the MAC should be an automatic online process rather than ringing up or anything. Have your original PID and password you used to register. Spoofing should work just fine though.

Make sure you've rebooted the STB properly between network devices, if you're using a crossover cable make sure you're still using a crossover cable and try setting the port on the router to 10Mb/half duplex.
