Same for me, both my NICs (have two onboard) now have the same address, apparently burnt into them: > $ sudo ethtool --show-permaddr eth0 > Permanent address: aa:00:04:00:0a:04 > $ sudo ethtool --show-permaddr eth1 > Permanent address: aa:00:04:00:0a:04 lspci's (short) output: > Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

Any suggestions on restoring this manually?
