Home appliance network system and method for operating the same

A home appliance network system and a method for operating the same, wherein a network master can not only automatically generate a unique house address of a corresponding home, but also sense a network collision of the corresponding home with a neighboring home to maintain house address uniqueness. The network master manages / controls one or more home appliances connected to a network of the corresponding home and determines whether the generated house address collides with that of the neighboring home. If the generated house address is determined to collide with that of the neighboring home, the network master automatically changes the house address to a new one to maintain house address uniqueness. As a result, the network master can prevent a network interference / collision with the neighboring home, thereby increasing security and stability of the home appliance network system at low cost.
