Clear iSpot review {Engadget}
Aug 10th 2010 2:39PM @CapnShiner Without knowing how to replace the firmware or edit that particular setting, I can't say for sure. At least one person who left a comment on my site states they've disabled MAC filtering, but hasn't provided any detail on how it was accomplished. Of course, any path to use the iSpot in ways in which it wasn't intended could violate Clear's terms of service though.

Aug 10th 2010 2:25PM @SonicEarth Those are the pertinent bits - this is how they allow ranges. If they only allowed like a dozen MAC addresses, it's be a pretty useless device. So substitute random characters for the remaining places.

Aug 10th 2010 1:24PM @Chris Ziegler Through the Super admin web console, you can see all the acceptable MAC address ranges/prefixes. The original firmware had like 16 or 17, the firmware update from 8/5 added like another 10 (which added some additional iPhone 4 hardware as far as I can tell).

Aug 10th 2010 1:19PM @Chris Ziegler I've got the late 2008 aluminum unibody Macbook. Others have confirmed similar both our respective situations, so there's some overlap but not complete.

Aug 10th 2010 1:16PM FYI My Macbook MAC address is blocked. So there's obviously a number of of overlapping MAC addresses covering both iOS and and Macbook hardware. I've manually changed my MAC address on my Broadcom aircard to enable access, but others have been unable to do so on Atheros aircards.
We're discussing some of the finer points of MAC spoofing and the 'super' admin web console (192.168.1.1./super) that's been uncovered thus far here:

WD TV Live Plus gets reviewed, lauded for value {Engadget}
Jul 31st 2010 11:24AM Engadget, you make me sad - we reviewed this 6 weeks ago. ;) Video quality was fine with our mkv Blu-ray rips, but there were some other quirks and bugs that need to be addressed by WD. I praise Anandtech for such a thorough examination though, no way we have the energy (or time) for that.
