hi guys ,

 

anyone figured out how to stop getting a random mac at boot ?

i am wanting the sharkjack to have the same mac at boot for dhcp so it doesnt keep taking leases

What payload are you using?

Well, payload doesn't matter. If using NETMODE DHCP_CLIENT then you can try this.

In the case statement at the end of the /usr/bin/NETMODE file,
add the following line in the DHCP_CLIENT section below the line; uci set network.lan.proto='dhcp'

uci set network.lan.macaddr='some valid MAC address'
