Reread the documentation for the Ethernet controller. Is the MAC address
expected to be initialized to a known state? Is it configurable during the
initialization process? If you are getting random values then either 1. You
have not initialized properly, 2. random values are the expected initialized
state.
When you read registers other than the MAC, do you get consistent values?
