Title:
Disable MAC address randomization on Live system
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm using the pre-release version of artful 17.10 and network manager
1.8.2-1ubuntu2 Much like in Debian Stretch, network-manager is set to
use the random mac address feature of network manager, which doesn't
allow certain wifi cards/ routers to work together. See Debian bug
836351. I think this feature should be disabled on a live cd, because
it isn't fixable during an install and it might cause a user just to
give up and not install Ubuntu.
