Title:
  unable to clone mac address

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am unable to spoof a mac address using either the command line, or
  editing a network connection with the gui. I have not tried using a
  program such as macchanger, but according to this post on the forums
  (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2221802) that doesn't work
  either.

  When I try to access my network (using wifi), it tries, but ultimately
  fails to connect. When I connect to different network without a
  spoofed mac address, it connects perfectly.

  p.s. I have the same problem on my rooted android smartphone running
  4.4 kitkat. It used to work fine on 4.2, but spoofing hasn't worked
  since I updated.

  1 Ubuntu 14.04
  2 network-manager version: 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7
  3 Connect to the network with a spoofed mac address
  4 Connection is rejected b/c of mac address filtering (computer reports mac as spoofed, router sees original address)
