The MAC addresses that I ship are valid MAC addresses - it was that their DHCP server, only gave IP addresses to "valid" machines on their network (valid = machines that the net admin knew about and wanted on the network). Since they were hacking on this they did the best thing they could - they unplugged the Windows machine, and stole it's MAC address, so their DHCP server would give them an IP number that their routers liked.
Well, such behaviour makes no sense and should not be fixed in software.
OK - I guess that is what I was looking for. If I made a smc91111_eeprom.c, would you accept that back into the examples, and if someone wanted to change it, they could do it from there?
Sure.
