Some cable providers do weird provisioning stuff with different flavors of DOCSIS. Do you know if your HWIC supports the version of DOCSIS your provider runs? It looks like those cards are good for DOCSIS 2.0, and many new providers are 3.0 by now so that may be something to look into..?

When you try to browse web do you get redirected like a modem in walled garden state?Yes, I read the HFC MAC address off to the comcast account activation people, and they repeated it back to me to make sure it was correct. I can't browse the web because the line protocol state on the interface is still "down"--until the line protocol comes up, there's no ability to send or receive packets. :( If there were a way to force line protocol to come up, and get an IP address on the interface, I might then be able to get to the captive portal; but without a usable IP address on the interface, there's no packet flow happening at layer 3. :( Thanks!
