How long does it take for router MAC address to take effect?

I just had the MAC address associated with my contract changed over the phone. The LED indicators on my new FritzBox are stable. Nonetheless, I still cannot connect to the internet. I understand the change would take a few hours but it’s been a few hours and I have restarted my router a few times already too. And yet I still cannot connect to the internet. How long does this usually take? Is there any way I can check in on the status of this online?

Additionally, are there any other steps I should take after I’ve asked them to change my MAC address?

Okay, it took about ten minutes more after I posted this question and another restart of the router. And now, I am connected. 😁
