PS - as I also raised on private email earlier, some ISPs definitely
hardcode which MAC can attach to a port (i.e., they lock on the first
one that gets there, and prevent subsequent ones until there's an
override).

Specific case: Santa Barbara, Cox ISP.

I will bet $20 that COX does it on the Cable modem and not the
switch.

"uncapping" cable modems to get around the MAC limit is getting
pretty common these days.  See:
