Hi Aivar,

As a suggestion, it would be really helpful if during the Thonny flashing process using esptool; you incorporate the esptool command "read_mac" and then display it after the "Done" on completion of flashing. Users could then copy the MAC for future use, obviating the need to setup a network object just to obtain the MAC.

MM.
