Does Puppy have a spoofing of hardware address for WiFi?

[perdido]

So from your post I see that something does not behave the same on bionic/precise as it does on fatdog ... . I use yad version 42.

Hi stemsee,
I will try and find a 32-bit yad 42 to upgrade with, might make a difference.

I satrted with yad 33 in precise and that worked when manually choosing interface but failed when the mouse-click method was implemented. Upgrading to yad 40 fixed that so maybe upgrading again could be the solution.

Will report back on this if I test with yad 42.

Thanks for building this utility!

The problem is the ifconfig behaves differently.

Hi stemsee,
