I just installed macchanger and run: macchanger -s wlan0 Permanent MAC: 00:e0:4c:81:92:dc (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.) Current MAC: 00:e0:4c:81:92:dc (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.) # macchanger -m 00:e0:4c:81:92:dc wlan0 Permanent MAC: 00:e0:4c:81:92:dc (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.) Current MAC: 00:e0:4c:81:92:dc (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.) It's the same MAC!! So after this what should I do with udev rules in 70-persistent-net.rules ? Now the line is: # USB device 0x:0x (rtl8192cu) SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", \ ATTR{address}=="00:e0:4c:81:92:*", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", \ ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="wlan*", NAME="wlan0" -- Regards from Pal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
