Glad you've got it working now thanks to homealone & others
But, just to answer that bit above -
If you ever need to clone a MAC address (& you don't
have to, as you can just reboot the SACM if you change devices), it
must be the MAC address of the previously connected PC (well, it's network card), &
not the MAC of the modem itself.
If the router's WAN port had the MAC of the modem, while, obviously, the modem had the same MAC (as it's its own MAC), problems would ensue...
