Need to change MAC address on NETGEAR Nighthawk C7800
I left an open email relay on my machine and of course it was exploited and now my static IP is listed in sorbs and spamhaus. I have begged them to delist my IP but they said they can't and I have to...
Any good recommendations on a router/modem combo? Preferrably one that can change MAC address within the firmware? ...that is if ISPs even allow routers that do that anymore... this would be for a family of 6 gamer addicted kids and a mom & dad who work from home + 1gbit Comcast speed?

I recommend getting into a separate modem and external router combination.
ISP modems have never been able to change MAC addresses, same for modem router combo gateway units. If you get a stand alone modem and a external router, routers have much more flexibility to be configured and some also include MAC cloning abilities as well.
