Stop changing mac address

Hi David,

Have you tried taking a look at some online resource such as https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/395059/how-to-stop-mac-address-from-changing-after-disconnecting

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.
