[Bug 1320752] Re: MAC Spoofing / Cloning for WiFi is broken in Trusty 14.04 / 14.10 and all others including Mint 17
I too have the same problem.
CLONE MAC ADDRESS in Ubuntu does not work. I'm using Kubuntu 15.04.
This bug popped up in Debian at the same time it hit Ubuntu over a year
ago but Debian had it fixed in a couple of weeks.
FIX THIS.
On Kubuntu because PLASMA ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!
Not to mention you can still use Upstart instead of systemd-ENESSAY
Get OFF YOUR LAZY ASSES AND FIX THIS SHIT OR GO BACK TO WORK AT MS!

Title:
MAC Spoofing / Cloning for WiFi is broken in Trusty 14.04 / 14.10 and
all others including Mint 17
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in wpasupplicant package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
**SHORT OVERVIEW**
"Cloned MAC Address" feature doesn't work with any USB WiFi adapters
in 14.04, 14.10, Mint 17 and likely all others based on Ubuntu.
It worked under 13.10 and was broken from day one in 14.04+.
This is not an upgrade issue, i did a clean install to test.
Atheros, Realtek, Ralink adapters tested, this has nothing to do with the driver type.
The only symptoms are WiFi not connecting and the following dmesg
output:
[ 214.296350] wlan0: authenticate with 98:fc:11:f2:f7:43
[ 214.305098] wlan0: send auth to 98:fc:11:f2:f7:43 (try 1/3)
[ 214.307421] wlan0: authenticated
[ 219.367559] wlan0: deauthenticating from 98:fc:11:f2:f7:43 by local choice (reason=3)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
**TEMP SOLUTION***
This bug is caused by wpasupplicant (2.1-0ubuntu1.1) in Trusty,
network-manager is not the culprit.
I quick fix is to downgrade wpasupplicant to the Saucy version,
wpasupplicant (1.0-3ubuntu2). This is relatively easy and doesn't seem
to affect anything else.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original bug report info:
after setting the mac to change in networkmanager i try to connect yet it never will, when looking at the logs it says it got disconnected by local choice (reason 3), it appeared it was because the mac wasnt effectively changed but then again i tried to do so disabling network-manager -> macchanger -m -> enabling network-manager, i checked with ifconfig if the mac has changed and it did however the result was the same
maybe its because of this http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2013/CVE-2013-4579.html?
**UPDATE**
now works doing the macchanger procedure, directly from network-
manager it doesnt
