Hmm - don't know for the wlan-ng drivers, but the orinoco_cs driver
changed MAC just fine yesterday when I did some penetration testing.

I just issued 

ifconfig eth1 down
ifconfig eth1 hw ether 12:34:56:78:90:12
ifconfig eth1 up
pump -i eth1

and I was back up again with the AP giving a new IP to MAC
12:34:56:78:90:12.

BTW: WEP128 key was recovered after 4 hours of logging the busy net.
And still some people believe it's secure ...


CU, Andy
