Linux/WL1831MOD: How to change BD Address

Part Number: WL1831MOD


Tool/software: Linux

Hi,


I have the same BD Address For two devices,
How can I change it for one device. ?

Thanks
Ashish S

  • Hi Ashish,

    You can use the HCI_VS_Write_BD_Addr (0xFC06) vendor specific command after every initialization to change the BD_ADDR.

    So to confirm, you have the exact same BD_ADDR in two WL183x devices by default? I am asking because the chances of the same BD_ADDR on two devices are close to none. Do these devices have same WiFi MAC address as well?

    Best regards,
    Vihang
