Per http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/index.shtml:


Here are the results of your search through the public section of the
IEEE Standards OUI database report for 00-02-E3:


________________________________________________________________________

00-02-E3   (hex)		LITE-ON Communications, Inc.
0002E3     (base 16)		LITE-ON Communications, Inc.
				736 S. Hillview Drive
				Milpitas CA 95035
				UNITED STATES

The byte swapped address does not find any matches.  It's not Netgear
but who can tell anymore.
