Because of this patch I can no longer load g_ether module with host_addr= and dev_addr= parameters. The module is always loaded using factory mac for HOST and random mac for DEV. That messes up my setup a bit, as I use NetworkManager 0.7 on FreeRunner itself (and it expects DEV mac to be the same each time). Would it be a problem to also include g_ether.dev_addr? Attached patch solves my problem. Rob
