Hi,
I'd do:
UUIDS="$(nmcli -g TYPE,UUID connection show | \
sed -n 's/802-11-wireless://p')"
for UUID in $UUIDS; \
do \
nmcli \
-f
connection.id,connection.uuid,802-11-wireless.ssid,connection.interface-name,802-11-wireless.mac-address
\
-mode multiline \
connection show uuid "$UUID" ; \
echo ; \
done
if you want to clear these values:
for UUID in $UUIDS; \
do \
echo "$UUID ..." ; \
nmcli connection modify uuid "$UUID" \
connection.interface-name '' \
wifi.mac-address '' ; \
done

put
[device-unmanage-internal-wifi]
match-device=mac:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
managed=0
to /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/99-unmanaged-internal-wifi.conf and
restart.
Or even blacklist the module from loading in /etc/modprobe.d.
best,
Thomas
