Cant find a sticker on the STB with a mac address either. topper
np, in the setup for the router, choose 'obtain an IP automatically', rather than static etc, then on another screen (not sure which one on a Belkin - I have a Linksys) check it is set to 'DHCP server enable'.

It's a bummer about the MAC address, though, for a Pace STB it should be something like 00:50:94:xx:xx:xx, but I don't know whether you can get at that info via the diagnostics - anyone?
