Re: [lpc2000] MAC address for NM7010A

no what should the address be, as the MAC register needs to be set.

If you wish your device to be on a public network or sold commercially then
you have to buy a MAC address separately for each device and program it into
the NM7010A registers.  If you have complete control over the network
accessibility and the devices connected to the network you can use any MAC
address within spec, provided each is unique within the network.

As an aside the FreeRTOS.org download includes a demo that uses a NM7010
with an LPC2106.
