Check the mac address of FR. Usually it is supposed that your udev
rules will assign ethX device to FR by MAC and every time you plug it
in, it will rename the created interface. Take a look at your
persistent-net udev rules file.

To get persistent MAC on FR, you need to fetch it from the factory
ext2 partition and use as a kernel (or g_ether) parameter. Recent Qi
does that automatically.
