Package: ndiswrapper
Version: 1.47-2
Severity: important
According to this page:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,tips/
the mac address should be able to be changed with NetworkAddress in the
conf file. That does not work. I have included my conf file, to show
all of the paramaters that I have tried (MacAddress, network_address,
etc). I have tried them with and without colons. The referenced page
says that you should not use colons, but colons were required in
previous ndiswrapper versions. I have also tried "ifconfig wlan1 hw
ether <mac>". That does not work either. Mac changing worked in
ndiswrapper 1.28-?.
My card is a Linksys WUSB54Gv1. It has a prism54 driver. I am using the
debian stock 2.6.18-4 kernel (haven't upgraded because of nvidia
issues). I had these same problems getting ndiswrapper to work in
2.6.21-2.

Good News! This is one of the bugs fixed in upstream's ndiswrapper
1.50. I checked debian's latest unstable packages, 1.50-1, and it works
fine.
