In order to use the script you must first install the script UI primitives posted here in "/usr/local/bin". After that you should be able to run setmac.oar. The script allows to edit and set your mac address. It makes a copy of your softmac file in "/lib/hotplug/firmware/sofmac_bkup".
The script serves my purposes but obviously usage of the script is at your own risk...

Both,
Thank you for pointing this out. I thought I was going crazy too. This is something they have to get under control. I wonder if the MAC address is the same on all Boox e-readers? It doesn't make sense.
