Why does the IP address on a PM8ECC change to 2.109.2.110?

Issue

The PM8ECC IP address changes to "2.109.2.110" and the (default) gateway changes to "2.113.2.114".

Product

PM8ECC

Cause

This issue is happening because of the permission right while writing to conditional registers.

One possible reason why this specific IP address (2.109.2.110) is chosen is that the IP Address register is located at register number 622.
The hex equivalent breakdown of the IP is as follows:
2 = 2 hex
109 = 6D hex
26D hex = 621 dec
---------------------
2 = 2 hex
110 = 6E hex
26E hex = 622 dec

Note: the IP register is at address 622.
