Thanks for your quick response Mat.
The default was the first I've tried. 
I thought I had tried everything, but I overlooked post #23 about the FRITZ!Box 
that I have as well. The solution mentioned there works for me too !!

I don't understand the logic behind it, the FRITZ!Box already knows the MAC 
address (from the nic itself, I guess).
Upgrading the firmware did not change this behaviour, but it does now enable 
you to enter the hostname yourself.
