Hi

I'm using a beaglebone green wireless

Using Debian 9 the mac address didn't matchs with the mac on the sticker on beaglebone
With Debian 8 the mac matches

For production I identify beaglebone by the mac in the sticker so it's important get the same MAC in the software

Why this script for Debian 9 and Debian 8 set a differents MACs?


It's posible to calculate the MAC in the sticker?



Regards,
Sebastián

Open /etc/default/bb-wl18xx and change:

USE_INTERNAL_WL18XX_MAC_ADDRESS=yes

to

USE_INTERNAL_WL18XX_MAC_ADDRESS=no

and reboot...
