Its possible to change MAC address in MyFlora sensor? #145

Open logrodiego opened 3 years ago

logrodiego commented 3 years ago

Hello everyone: I bought 4 My Flora from Huahuacaocao but I have a big problem, they all have the same MAC address (80: EA: CA: 60: 05: 05)!

I encountered this problem by turning on the My Flora sensors 1 by 1 and using this command on Raspberry pi: sudo hcitool lescan.

I tried using the HHCC app and the same thing happened, I can only add 1 of them, but not the rest of the items :(.

The question is, do any of you know how I can change the MAC address of these sensors of my flora ?.

If no one knows how I can do it, do any of you know a manufacturer support contact email?

Thank you very much for your support.

No and no. Sorry. If this is indeed the case for you, you got swindled. Mac addresses have to be unique. My suggestion is to recheck and then contact the seller.

Thanks Thom, this is what I guessed. I checked it again and I'm sure. I claimed a refund to get my money back.
