Although arp -a gives me a different adress from ifconfig -a, it's still

Hi,
try to use arp -a or arp ip-address-of-cable-modem
usually the cable-modem has its own MAC address.
Also it is possible that the 2 interfaces in the modem have its own MAC
address.
f.ex.: LAN-Interface of cable modem has MAC address 1
and cable-Interface of modem has MAC-address 2
cu,
