I didn't say it would "remember" those changes; that depends on the 
particular make of card.

I said that the MAC is permanent. Usually. You change it, then next time 
reverts to the "permanent" MAC.

If that command changes the mac for the time being it means that is stored 
in non permanent memory, and that you need to run the command every boot. 
As simple as that. There are means to automate boot scripts.

Or, get the documentation for that card and see if it has an utility to 
make a permanent MAC change.
