Many thanks for the pointers. Went ahead and did it. My cable modem
connection is now working!
So, to recap, a bug in NetBSD's driver for my PCI network card was keeping me
from connecting to the net. A tip for the future, if your network card's
MAC/NIC number to show up wrong in the operating system, there's probably a
driver bug.
Thanks very much to you all for helping,
