you shouldn't need to clone the mac address if you are using a cable modem, but yes set the router to obtain ip and dns automatically. Also, if you router is PPPoE compatable, make sure this is disabled.

As Nikko said, make sure you power everything down as well, and make sure the modem is turned off for a good half minute. Then you should be able to make the connection straight away.
