set WLAN Mac Address?

[IngoPan]

Hi,

Whats the shell command to set the WLAN Mac Addresses please for 2.4 and 5Ghz Wlan? Thanks in advance!

You don't say what router you have or the firmware version.

On my RT-AC68U I can set the 5GHz MAC addresses with:

# nvram set 1:macaddr=30:5A:3A:C7:8A:24
# nvram commit
# reboot

The same "trick" doesn't work for the 2.4GHz radio as the same MAC address is used for the WAN, LAN and 2.4GHz interfaces. To change those use:

# nvram set et0macaddr=30:5A:3A:C7:8A:20
# nvram commit
# reboot

YMMV

I'd be careful about changing the relationships of the MAC addresses...I'm not sure if there are code dependencies. LAN and 2.4GHz MACs are the same....5GHz MAC is LAN/2.4GHz MAC +4
