Dear Jussi,
Please help to double check if the following information is helpful to solve your issue or not? If no, please deliver us your test asix.c driver file and detailed test procedures for further investigation. Thanks a lot.
==============
Actually, if you just want to manually set the MAC address of your AX88772B/AX88772A/AX88178 devices for engineering testing, you can refer to below procedures to temporary change the MAC address of your AX88772B/AX88772A/AX88178 device on Linux platform through the “ax8817x_set_mac_addr()” routine of AX88772B/AX88772A/AX88178 Linux driver source code.

I found out that setting MAC in ax88722_reset() solves the issue for
me. Maybe changes to init/reset sequence causes hardware to be reseted
after set_mac_address call and revert to default MAC?
Patch attached.
