I need to tell a network admin the hardware address of my wlan0
interface, so that he gives me access to the wifi network. The problem
is that the hw address is changing everytime I use the wlan0 hardware
switch...
# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether b2:ad:31:c5:86:36 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) ...
I bring it up using the hardware switch, then
# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::c2cb:38ff:fe4c:568f prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>
ether c0:cb:38:4c:56:8f txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) ...
I switch it off again, then
# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether aa:c3:d0:e1:43:cb txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) ...
and so on... what is changing the hw address? How do I stop it?
