#99 Arduino C++ – ESP32 mac address issues caused by ESP32 v3.0.0

As the ESP32 board manager upgraded to version 3.0.0 some of the changes in the library cause code to break.

In this video I look at the issue of the mac address reading 0:0:0:0:0:0 as well as the issue when trying to change the mac address to a custom address.

These issues are harder to deal with because the code compiles with ESP32 v3.0.0 but doesn’t give the expected output.

In this video I document how I fixed both issues.

  • holy shit, i have exactly the same problem and at this very moment this tutorial came up, in the same day as my emergin problem! what an incredible coincidence, and yes there are few documentation about this problem, and most forum tend to numb it down by just saying that the esp was broken or a dud. Btw, thanks for the solutions!
