In the maintenance section if you have the black hub only the last character will be different . On the page before signing into the hub it will list attached devices . These will have different macs as the mac defines the manufacturer

You should have a broadand port mac, lan port mac address and a device mac address they all should have the same mac up until the last number or letter. Perfectly normal

It all seems the same but I've noticed the last number is different with each one but the rest are the same
