Brian: This may help: My cable is AT&T which was MediaOne/RoadRunner. (Note: Before trying this method, RESET the cable modem, not just turn it off and try your current setup again).
That said, AT&T (LA/S Calif) allows you to have 3ea MAC addresses on file. After trying to solve the spoofing problem, I just registered the LRP address (eth0) with my ISP. (this also allows a quick return to your orginal setup) eth1 now goes to the Win98 box. If your ISP doesn't allow several MAC's on file, you could still just register the LRP NIC in place of the Win98.
