    Yes i found these kind of solution.

    Sorry, i failed to mention i'm talking about my eth0 interface not about wifi.

     

    I tried by editing: /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

    [main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=false

[device]
match-device=interface-name:eth0
ethernet.assigned-mac-address=82:95:a5:cd:6e:6e

    I tried by editing: /etc/network/interfaces

    auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto         eth0
iface        eth0
  hwaddress  82:95:a5:cd:6e:6e

     

    None of them seemed to work for me.

     

    But i'm asking this mainly because  of MAC collision. I'm afraid of configure it badly. As far as i know all network interface got it's unique MAC address from the manufacturer.

    I want it to use it's assigned address by the manufacturer. Or because of it's nature (it's a board) it does not have an assigned MAC address?

    Hi David,

     

    You can set a static MAC Address in the uEnv.txt file on your SD Card.
