Wlan - Spoofed Mac Address

[geo]

Hello everybody!

My ISP makes simple filtering by MAC address and IP of the NIC in my PC. Usually, I connect with wireless adaper to the AP at home which works as a bridge to the ISP's LAN cable. But if I have to use another adapter I spoof its MAC address and everything works fine.

As long as Zaurus 5500 is not my primary home PC , if I want to get it connected to internet through the Asus SpaceLink WL-110 CF wlan adapter I must spoof its mac address. It is easy:

#ifconfig wlan0 hw ether XXYYZZXXYYZZ

where XXYY... is the MAC address which the ISP expects. It works, but I would like to know where is the most proper place to make this spoofing permanent (which config files should I change I mean). I am talking about OpenZaurus 3.5.3 with opie.

10x in advance!

The followin change to /etc/network/interfaces should do the trick:

iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        [...]
        pre-up ifconfig $IFACE hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
        [...]
