I dit not changed the mac addresses.
according to some pages on the internet changing the value local-mac-address? wil not help to change it automatic, and i tried it. With my kind of quad card the changing of that parameter don't help, its now on true

If i use ifconfig qeX ether x:x:x:x:x i can change the address but how do i make it permanent?, or must i write a script that take the device down, change the mac address, and takes it back up?.

with one interface works it fine.
