Hi!

You saved my day :D Finally it works...! Thanks for the hint.
[ 214.478668] wlan0: Selected IBSS BSSID 56:97:1a:24:11:6c based on configured SSID
# iw dev wlan0 station dump
Station 00:02:ee:c0:ff:ee (on wlan0)
inactive time: 429 ms
rx bytes: 8964
tx bytes: 408
signal: 55 dBm
tx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s
I just checked the other N810 devices and every device has
the same mac address. And here we go... [p54spi_eeprom.h:39]
0x00, 0x02, 0xee, 0xc0, 0xff, 0xee,
The original kernel with default os shows the correct address.
When booting a different os with the with the original or custom
kernel it shows the 'coffee' address.
So is there a way to let the kernel receive and set the
correct mac address of the wlan device?
I guess my problem is this line:
[ 3685.320800] cx3110x spi2.0: loading default eeprom...
Anyway, i'm happy that it's working now.
Regards,
AleX
