Actually, what I found out is that if something is wrong with the configuration, NetworkManager doesn't seem to work correctly and give a random MAC address.
Now I am trying to get Bluetooth to work, looks like I can't even see the device?
What is the latest version of Centos? and is there still work being done on a 64 bit version?
thanks,
Ron

Hello,
I don't know if this is a dev issue/problem, but I bought 2 RPI 3 about a year ago, and installed centos on one (the other one I haven't even used yet).
It seems the Mac address changes every reboot? (into something 'random', because the first 2 numbers indicate the manufacturer, right?
Is this a known issue? is it an OS or hardware issue?
thanks,
Ron
Something I discovered when we were looking at WiFi support for the RPI3 : there is one file "controlling" the needed firmware for it : /usr/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt
If you look at that file, we decided to comment the macaddress line, to avoid all the provisioned RPI3 boards to suddenly uses the same static mac address everywhere. So the file (as present in the rpi image we provided) is looking like this : #macaddr=00:90:4c:c5:12:38
That can probably explain what you're seeing ?
