This is telling me that you have at one time or another had four
different cards with the MAC addresses.
00:03:ba:f0:ce:50
00:50:04:d2:73:7d
00:03:ba:f0:ce:51
00:50:04:62:0a:00
If you have only one remove, all of these references and reboot and
things may settle down. (Make a backup copy of file just in case). If
you have more than one network interface be a bit more careful and
identify which card you want on which interface and edit accordingly.
