If you are connecting via a stand alone cable modem you shouldn't need to manually enter a MAC address, this is only required when connecting via a set top box.

You should be able to set the router to 'obtain an IP automatically' and set 'DHCP server enable', then a reboot of modem, router & PC (ensuring time for each to settle down at each stage) should get you an IP.
