Your PC's MAC address can be found by entering the cmd window on your PC (MSDOS window) and typing ipconfig /all. The MAC address will be listed as Physical Address.
Hope that helps.

that only applies for Set Top Boxes, Stand Alone Cable Modems are able to handle the reboot process & will pick up an IP, without cloning the MAC
