Indeed, power cycling the modem works for everyone. The techies at ntl have 
never been able to add extra MACs onto a modem (no access to the DHCP server) 
as far as I know - I used to work there and know fair few of the techs who 
have been there since day 1.

If memory serves:

For a while it was restricted to 1 MAC per modem, cached for 8 hours. It went 
up to 2 per customer cached for 4 hours, with a power cycle required between. 
Now the official policy is 3 MACs per customer cached for 4 hours, though I 
suspect a lot of uBRs won't be enforcing this rule at all. The power cycle is 
essential though.
