Hi,

I am working to port OpenWrt to Luckfox rv1106 devices (right now focusing on the 86 panel), based on ticklab's base work.

It's already running fine with display, RS485 and wired network. However, at this time it is unclear to me where the MAC address for the ethernet interface comes from. I have 2 86 panels here, these show different MACs but these seem pretty random, and have no common known OUI. How are MACs provisioned on the pico-1106 series products?

Hello, the Ethernet controller and MAC of RV1106 do not have a fixed MAC address. They default to using random numbers for configuration. This can be set through commands.

Thank you for the explanation! So I would need to have my own number block and OUI in case I need public unique MAC addresses on ethernet? Is it the same for WiFi and BT?

The Ethernet MAC address of RV1106 is set by software. It can be set by applying for a public unique MAC address from IEEE; the MAC addresses for WIFI and BT have already been set and written into the hardware, and no additional setting by software is required.
