Sounds like they all have the same Ethernet MAC address.  On each unit,
run

ifconfig eth0

and you should get output like:

r...@arago:/# ifconfig eth0
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:08:EE:03:85:87  
          inet addr:10.0.0.181  Bcast:10.0.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::208:eeff:fe03:8587/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:68440 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:38
          TX packets:25533 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:1 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:75131751 (71.6 MiB)  TX bytes:4378782 (4.1 MiB)
          Interrupt:33 

Look at the HWaddr and make sure each one has a unique value.  If they
all have the same value, I suspect you can set the MAC address by
passing the value from the bootloader to the kernel via the kernel
command line.

Also, when I have networking problems, I find wireshark very helpful to
figure out what is going on.
