Any ideas?

I've had at least two separate linksys NIC cards die like this. The
MAC would be randomly different on each power cycle. I chucked
those cards in the recycle bin :-).

If these are built in ethernet ports, perhaps the motherboard
battery is going dead and causing a similar problem?


You could set the MAC address on each bootup so that it's consistent.

See, for instance:

The above is for fedora 19, but the method is about the same for F21.

Obviously, you'd set it to a number rather than randomizing it...
