I'm not sure there's enough information on your configuration to
provide good recommendations, but take a look into the
local_mac_address? Open-Boot PROM setting and see if that helps. When
set "true" it allows each interface to have a different MAC address,
rather than the "system" MAC address.

As a general question, does anybody know whether the OS can check the state of

does work as individual HMEs, the driver could be patched to allow use

I'll ask once again, as well. I'm willing to provide a patch against
kernel.org 2.6.11.8 for a very incomplete and guaranteed
non-functional envctrl driver for the E450 to anybody willing to run
it on their system, report results back to me and be the least bit
