I am doing the same thing running NAT overlaod off my ip address on the
ethernet interface. I had to unplug the cable modem then p;ug it in again so
that it would take the mac address of the ethernet interface. Worked fine
after that.

are you sure they are not also checking your mac address. I think
roadrunner or @home does

Subject: IOS DHCP options (2514 and picky CATV server)
Hello,
I've hooked up my 2415 running 12.1(2)T to the CATV modem, but
I'm having a
DHCP problem. Basically, the CATV company provides registered host names
(format: ab9-a.catv.area1.catv.com) and the host name must be in the
DHCP request packet, or the CATV system drops the request.
Sniffing my NT4 SP6a machine requesting an IP, I see the host
name in under
the DHCP Header in the format:
DHCP Host name = "ab9-a.tv.area1.center2.catv.com".
Sniiffing my Cisco router, this entry is "".
Don't suppose there is any way to force the inclusion of the host
name in a
DHCP request in IOS?
FYI, I set the hostname combos below with no luck:
1)
hostname ab9-a
ip domain-name tv.area1.center2.catv.com
2)
hostname ab9-a.tv.area1.center2.catv.com
(This gets truncated though)
Regards,
