"Me too" (but with a different make and model).

The dc driver in 4.6-RELEASE reports an incorrect Ethernet
address for a Linksys LNE100TX ver. 5.1 NIC.

Boot messages:
dc0: <ADMtek AN985 10/100BaseTX> port 0xec00-0xecff mem 0xe8000000-0xe80003ff irq 11 at device 11.0 on pci0
dc0: Ethernet address: 08:00:08:00:08:00
miibus0: <MII bus> on dc0
ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on miibus0
ukphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

[The MAC address should look like 00:10:67:__:__:__]

(I wonder if this is the same problem reported in kern/36410?)

initial ifconfig output:

dc0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	ether 08:00:08:00:08:00
	media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP)
	status: active

Whoa--I'm plugged into a 10/100 switch.

% ifconfig dc0 media auto
	...
	media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
	...

Much better.
