Same mac address after fresh reinstall

Post by Animalebestiale »

Hi everybody, i'm tring to setup Nas4free on my old desktop.
Motherboard Asus with 2 gigabit nics on board with a marvell chip.
I tried last week to install Nas4free end set a lagg configuration. At the end both nics got same mac and no ip address given by my router (i hate static ip conf). So after reboot i saw both nics with same mac and reset nics in the starting menu (not by webui) totally useless
OK. turned off router, switch and pc.
in the weekend I tried to reinstall but just starting with live cd, i saw the 2 nics with always the same mac for both.....how can i reset to get 2 macs and so 2 different ip address by dhcp??
Thanks in advance.

same MAC Adress it's expected behavior with lagg configured

don't know wich Router you have, but AFAIK ther's no Router who support lagg

so use a Switch that's support it!
