Hi All, Weird problem... In a new compaq PC with dual netgear 311's (using the fa311 driver from netgear) we see some interesting effects with the MAC addresses.
ifconfig shows: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:CC:73:E8:B0 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:E8:6A:FF:7A yet the startup shows: Nov 13 11:49:03 fwwlc kernel: eth0: bus=1 func=72 io=0xc000 irq=11 ver=4.3 Nov 13 11:49:03 fwwlc kernel: eth0: ethernet addr=08:00:17:32:42:00 Nov 13 11:49:03 fwwlc kernel: eth1: bus=1 func=80 io=0xc400 irq=12 ver=4.3 Nov 13 11:49:03 fwwlc kernel: eth1: ethernet addr=08:00:17:32:42:00 Any thoughts on why startup would show 2 cards with the same MAC, yet ifconfig shows 2 different MACs entirely? eth0 is local lan, eth1 connects to an adsl modem.
