you're welcome.

i didn't quite grok where you are now.  did changing the switch statement
fix your problem entirely?

also, i didn't get if you have a two port card or not.

(btw: a mac address of ffffffffffff is not the default.  this is the eeprom
returning read errors.  i would imagine all bits in the eeprom block are
set.)
