mac address reassignment
root # ip link set dev wlan0 down root # ip link set dev wlan0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX root # ip link set dev wlan0 up
Note:
confirmed working with actually dropping the network manager connections before hand... so note to completely disconnect from the router before running the commands.
Note:
original mac address will return to the device upon network restart, alternate wifi ap selection, and possibly upon disconnect.
