After upgrading the firmware, it physically changed the MAC address. It's an invalid address, hence why I had to manually change it to what was on the sticker, on the bottom of the router.
It set it to what I had posted up above...
I manually changed it where you can clone the address...in the WAN settings.
Let me know if that finally makes sense to you. And you should try out the firmware also. It might play nicer with PPPoE and FiOS.
My Fios isn't PPPOE its DHCP and the only the older installs of Fios have PPPOE as far as I know and all the new installs should be DHCP. -- »www.gamevee.com/user/Vyrax/videos
