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,
