Hi!

You saved my day :D Finally it works...! Thanks for the hint.

[  214.478668] wlan0: Selected IBSS BSSID 56:97:1a:24:11:6c based on configured SSID

# iw dev wlan0 station dump
Station 00:02:ee:c0:ff:ee (on wlan0)
	inactive time:	429 ms
	rx bytes:	8964
	tx bytes:	408
	signal:  	55 dBm
	tx bitrate:	1.0 MBit/s

I just checked the other N810 devices and every device has
the same mac address. And here we go... [p54spi_eeprom.h:39]
0x00, 0x02, 0xee, 0xc0, 0xff, 0xee,

The original kernel with default os shows the correct address.
When booting a different os with the with the original or custom
kernel it shows the 'coffee' address.
So is there a way to let the kernel receive and set the
correct mac address of the wlan device?
I guess my problem is this line:
[ 3685.320800] cx3110x spi2.0: loading default eeprom...

Anyway, i'm happy that it's working now.

Regards,
AleX
