Just a blue-sky thought here ... there used to be reports, back on the LRP lists, that, in some cases, clearing a MAC address required more than a simple modem reset. Some people reported needing to power-down (as in unplug from the wall socket) the modem for 5 minutes, presumably to clear some equivalent of the CMOS a PC uses to hold state between boots. If your "reset of the modem" hasn't been this thorough, you might try this approach and see if it helps.
