Wistron NeWeb Corporation (listed on maclookup.app as "WNC Corporation") holds 49 MA-L blocks (about 822.1 million addresses) registered at No. 20, Park Avenue II, Hsinchu Science Park, Hsin-Chu, Taiwan. Verified samples include 00:0B:6B, 28:24:FF, 8C:53:E6, AC:91:9B, 58:E4:03, 40:1A:58, and 60:02:B4. These OUIs appear on Wi-Fi/cellular/GNSS modules, broadband CPE, antennas, automotive telematics, and satellite/LEO terminals. The critical normalization point is a distinct-registrant flag: Wistron NeWeb (WNC, OUIs including 00:0B:6B) is NOT the same registrant as Wistron Corporation (the laptop ODM, OUI 00:0A:E4) — these must not be conflated. As an ODM and module maker, WNC's OUI commonly appears on a device sold under another brand or as ISP-supplied CPE, which places it in the module/EMS "OUI ≠ host brand" set alongside AzureWave, Murata, USI, u-blox, and Quectel. For triage, a WNC OUI may be a Wi-Fi/cellular module embedded in a host device, a carrier CPE unit, an automotive telematics unit, or a satellite terminal — the host brand is usually not WNC, so classify by device context rather than by the OUI's company name alone.

- Special note
- CRITICAL distinct-registrant flag — Wistron NeWeb (WNC, incl. 00:0B:6B) is NOT the same registrant as Wistron Corporation (laptop ODM, OUI 00:0A:E4). WNC is an ODM/module maker, so its OUI commonly appears on a device sold under another brand or as ISP-supplied CPE (module/EMS "OUI ≠ host brand" set). The IEEE registry publishes no assignment dates, so none is stated here. [Confirmed]
