This one. Sorry I mentioned Reliance, I was referring to Hathway.

"I am using Hathway cable internet where they bind your ip settings to 
your pc. If I unplug the lan cable from the pc and plug it into my 
laptop, I cannot browse. They are using some sort of dhcp with a static 
ip (I know that sounds funny - but that's what they say). "

Why wvdial for the above connection? It is a simple DHCP LAN.

Hathway asks for your mac ID when doing any installation or resetting it 
for a different device or recovering from a messup.
