The lines have worked with two different modem/routers. Still not sure why my Netgear won't link up... maybe I have the wrong MAC ID? I don't have the original box or manual so I had to go into the system specs to find it... maybe it's not the right one though.

 Perhaps: ADVANCED > Advanced Home : Internet Port : MAC Address
 (See User Manual, page 68.)
 With any luck, they'll agree. Note that there's also a MAC address
 for the LAN interface, but your ISP shouldn't care about that one.
