>Description:
Lower 6byte of the MAC address which can be acquired becomes "FF: FF:FF".
A MAC address collides when two and more "PTJ-LAN/T ethernet card" is used at the same time.

The designation of the Ether line is necessary.

>How-To-Repeat:
 MAC address collides when two and more "PTJ-LAN/T card" is used at the same time.

>Fix:
The designation of the Ether line is necessary.
