I connect to a microtik server distributing internet , I must edit the mac adress to match that in the microtik server to give me internet
the original adress of the interface is that one in nm-tool command output ,
i need to change it to the following adress 00:1e:8c:15:91:55
i used the ifconfig ifconfig hw ether command and the package macchanger-gtk to change the mac adress .
but in network manager it doesnt change it stay the same although it change when displaying status of eth0 with ifconfig command .

Re: my wired connection not working
You either use command line tools or network manager, not both. There is an option in the connection properties within NM to clone a MAC address.iageoscience wrote:edit the mac adress to match

Re: my wired connection not working
I meant i change my mac address through one method not both ,
although the mac address is changed it is not working .

Re: my wired connection not working
No you are trying to use both. Ifconfig amd macchanger are command line tools but you are expecting NM to take account of the changes. As I said, you either use command line networking or NM, not both. If you want to use command line tools, remove NM.
