Hi, after switching to kernel 3.8.8 (ubuntu quantal to raring), I'm
unable to change my alfa AWUS036NH mac address; a simple:

ifconfig <device> down
ifconfig <device> hw ether <random hw>

results in:

SIOCSIFHWADDR: Invalid argument

I tried the drivers shipped with the distribution,
compat-drivers-3.9-rc4-2-su and compat-drivers-2013-03-28-4-u aswell;
all to no avail.

Hi!

I have the same problem with RT5370 (rt2800usb driver).
compat-drivers-v3.7.9-1 still works, so this must be a regression in kernels after 3.8...
