Tested it, this still doesn't work:
iwconfig wlan0 down
macchanger wlan0
iwconfig wlan0 up
......
at that point card doesn't associate.
if I now set mac back to original, it works.
setting the mac before first ifconfig up (or networkmanager)
works.
I did some more testing on wireless transfer speeds, I post a separate
message about that, very soon.
Best regards,
