Is there something wrong with my NIC?
I have never seen this: ether 88:88:88:88:87:88
Code:

ifconfig
eno1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.1.8  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.1.255
        ether 88:88:88:88:87:88  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)

        inet 127.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0
