| + | ===== FAQ ===== | ||
| + | **Can I change MAC?**: Actually, yes, you can. It is not advised, however, because you may accidentally generate an overlapping address that will collide with another device in the same network. You must first explicitly configure the ESP32 chip to work as an AP (Access Point, Server) or STA (WiFi Client) to do it. Sample stub code (for STA) may look as follows: | ||
| + | <code c> | ||
| + | #include < | ||
| + | #include < | ||
| + | |||
| + | uint8_t newMAC[] = {0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xCA, 0xFE}; //Array of bytes with new MAC | ||
| + | void setup() | ||
| + | { | ||
| + | WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA); | ||
| + | esp_wifi_set_mac(WIFI_IF_STA, | ||
