This feature is missing in the ar6000 driver. I thought it was there already when I found WMI_SET_MAC_ADDRESS_CMDID in the source, but that one is used for wake-on-wireless. It wouldn't be that hard to implement, 2 new ioctls (set mac and reset mac) and another 6 bytes to save the original mac address. _______________________________________________ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
