> Afaik, if you use autocreate=sta, there will automatically be an STA
VAP, and in my case, this has the original MAC address.
Hi, thank you for your reply. I have tried as you advised, but it is
still the same. The following is the sequence of commands I used, Can
you spot anything wrong? Thank you again. I am using ubuntu netboox
remix (9.04) and Installed with the latest madwifi ( madwifi-
hal-0.10.5.6.current.tar)
# airmon-ng stop ath0 (or modprode ath_pci=none)
# modprobe ath_pci autocreate=sta
# ip link set dev wifi0 down
# macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 wifi0
# ip link set dev wifi0 up
# wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0
After the last command, when I checked the mac address of ath0, it is
starting with "06:..." instead of "00:..". The mac address of wifi0 is
changed without any problem.
