And now watch this when it comes down to WiFi NICs!
If during cloning of device, you set non-default ether (MAC) adress,
i.e;
----
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 ether $ether_here
----
BOOM! You'we just rendered WiFi NIC unusable, that is, it will never be
able to associate. Tried station and AP modes, with urtw and ath
drivers.
I believe it affects ALL WiFi NICs.
