I have gotten an additional two MAC addresses (total five, now) presented by the ETH-WIZ. (So, it has appeared on five different IP addresses in my network, and I can't give it a static address, since that is paired with the MAC address.) It never changes while running, and usually not when rebooting, but will almost always change the MAC address after loading a new image on the PB. And none of them are 'legal'. (That is, no recognizable OUI identifying the manufacturer.)
There must not be a memory for the MAC address in the ETH-WIZ, and the driver makes one up using a random number generator, upon booting on a new image for the first time. I am tired of chasing this Ethernet interface all over my network address space. . --- Graham == -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
