You're facing an issue with your dynamic public IP and Spectrum network. It seems the router isn't allowing you to modify your MAC address or change your public IP directly. You can only renew or refresh your IPv6 settings. Since your IP is constantly changing, it might be best to contact Spectrum support for further assistance. Trying to reset the router by unplugging it for a short time didn't resolve the problem.

They are assigned by the service provider, not your router. What you can't do in this situation.

You're wondering if everyone else you've talked to can change their router settings to copy your MAC address, which would alter your public IP. It looks like your router might be the only one without this feature.

I mentioned it myself, there were no ways to duplicate or modify your MAC address. Plus, what’s the point in changing it?

TWC/Spectrum offers a DHCP lease duration of roughly two days, meaning you must disconnect the device for several days to obtain a fresh IP address. The alternative is to switch the router or alter its MAC address if cloning isn't available.

Usually the MAC address feature functions when you have a separate modem and router. With an all-in-one setup it doesn’t work. The best solution is to disconnect your gateway until the IP lease ends.

It seems like you're planning a two-day trip, perhaps while being away from home.

It could be today, but it's been a while since I had to handle that. Usually I could adjust the MAC card quickly. If you want it reset, you might call them and request a lease renewal.
