If you want to get associated to a specific bssid with Mac OS, use this one.

did you run the app with sudo ?

airport-bssid does definitely work on 10.13 High Sierra. The trick though is that the results from option-click on the WiFi icon are cached and incorrect after running airport-bssid and connecting to a new BSSID.

To check that you have connected to the desired BSSID, you can do the following:

~> cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Versions/A/Resources/
~> ./airport -I | grep BSSID

Same as #7. Let's discuss there.
