Flashed Merlin Fork on Tmobile Cellspot -script to auto change wan MAC daily?

[treo650]

I have a Tmobile cellspot router, flashed to merlin fork firmware.

Question: how do I create a daily auto wan MAC address change?




Background
I always use Tomato firmware on my routers, and there was a script I set under scheduler for daily:

MAC=`(date; cat /proc/interrupts) | md5sum | sed -r 's/^(.{10}).*$/\1/; s/([0-9a-f]{2})/\1:/g; s/:$//;'`
nvram set mac_wan="00:${MAC}"
service wan restart

Bumped. Anyone?

Something to try as starting point. Assuming you have already set up jffs and can enter scripts.....


Save the following as /jffs/scripts/macaddr.sh and mark as executable (assumes you are only using a single wan connection)

#!/bin/sh

MAC=`(date; cat /proc/interrupts) | md5sum | sed -r 's/^(.{10}).*$/\1/; s/([0-9a-f]{2})/\1:/g; s/:$//;'`
nvram set wan0_hwaddr="00:${MAC}"
service restart_wan

Set up a cron job using cru. Save as /jffs/scripts/services-start and mark as executable.

#!/bin/sh

# Start MAC addr change script midnight every day
cru a MacAddr "0 0 * * * /jffs/scripts/macaddr.sh"
