Simply leaving out the MAC address does not work for multiple wifi

Makes sense

Newer OpenWrt versions put the device path in the wifi sections
instead of the MAC address.

This is a recent build from Trunk, could you give me an example of what's needed? I'm not seeing it in the autogenerated config.

 However, a much more reliable way of
preconfiguring devices is putting scripts into /etc/uci-defaults that
use uci commands to change the existing config files. That way you avoid
all these issues entirely.

that gets a little messy with lots of networks. I'll look into it though.

Hi,

Removing option disabled 1 into 'wireless' and adding in the SSID etc before
you build should do the trick, You should not need to add the MAC address
into the config file, This should be added automatically when the wifi is
detected.

Subject: [OpenWrt-Devel] problems with preloaded config

I've got a bunch (~50) of openwrt routers (3700/3800) to configure and I'm
running into a problem with the wireless configuration.

According to the documentation, I should be able to just leave out the MAC
entry and on first reboot, openwrt will add it.

What's happening instead is that two new radio sections get created, with
the MAC address in them, default SSID, and disabled.

How can I work around this without having to gather all the MAC addresses
ahead of time and putting them in the config files that I push out to the
routers?
