What should to do if you see that ONLY ARP Request packages are passing for handling

I found very strange situation using packet content logging: I was able to receive only ARP Request package. At moment i started to work with ethernet i was a newbie in network things lower than Transport layer. Using logging i can't find any other packet type i.e. ICMP.I tried to manipulate with some driver settings, changed many times logic of application layer, e.t.c. nothing helps me. However i start to think and understood that problem is related to packets filtration by MAC Address: and finally i discovered that bytes order in hardware chip registers of DP83848 bytes order of MAC is reversed. After i fix this problem i was able to receive any type of packets.
