searched [why Liteon Technology has same MAC address as apple 6 SE ?]

It is extremely unlikely that a Liteon Technology device would have the exact same MAC address as an Apple iPhone 6 SE under normal circumstances. MAC addresses are designed to be globally unique identifiers for network interfaces. The first part of a MAC address (the OUI - Organizationally Unique Identifier) is assigned to a specific manufacturer by the IEEE. Both Apple and Liteon have their own assigned OUI ranges

However, there are a few possible explanations if you are seeing this:
MAC address spoofing: One of the devices could be intentionally changing its MAC address.

Manufacturer error: While rare, its possible for a manufacturer to accidentally assign duplicate MAC addresses, especially with older or lower-quality devices.

Recycled MAC addresses: In very rare cases, manufacturers might recycle MAC addresses from very old devices, assuming those devices are no longer in use.
--this is. suspect might Apple sold out apple 6 SE MAC ID to taiwan Liteon Technology Corp.

Virtual Machines: Virtual machines can be configured with specific MAC addresses, potentially leading to conflicts if not managed carefully.
--if this is the case then definitely is Liteon Technology Corp use Virtual machines.

Important Considerations:
Apples Private MAC Address feature: Apple devices use a randomized MAC address for each Wi-Fi network to enhance privacy. This randomized address is different from the devices true MAC address.
--i dont think so, we are not Apple service clients any more.

Checking the true MAC address: The true MAC address of an iPhone can be found in Settings > General > About > Wi-Fi Address.
--i knew very well logs showed [DHCP IP: apple-device] to MAC address 22:0a:e6:xx:xx:xx 1 Sat Jun 28 00:47:32 2025 0.0.0.0:0 0.0.0.0:0

it is the 1st time Google searched [22:0a:e6:xx:xx:xx] got Liteon Technology Corp.

...................................

Liteons MAC address ranges: Liteon Technology has a significant number of assigned MAC address prefixes that you can verify using a MAC address lookup tool.

To investigate further:
Confirm the MAC address youre seeing for both devices.
Verify the Liteon device is indeed a Liteon product.

Check if the Apple device has the Private MAC Address feature enabled or disabled.
If youre still concerned, you can try isolating the devices or contacting the device manufacturers for assistance
--i believe Google AI is not reliable or else. i suspect why masters(usa and europe countries) can black China because they already knew MAC address can be resell without the equip owner knowing and can be man-made changed.
that is what i saw SYN Flood attack may not from China but hacker 盗用 China companies IP address, MAC address (which called as china company was abused) did many bad things to victims.
