thank you.

I start my laptop, so the cache should be empty , anyway, I issue:
Code:
arp -n

there is no entry for wlan0. Anyway, I flush everything:
sudo ip -s -s neigh flush all
-> msg: Nothing to flush

After that, the issue remains.

I could finally make it working !
It looks like my network manager did not stop correctly from gui:
so doing (as root)
Code:
service network-manager stop && ifconfig wlan0 down && macchanger -A && ifconfig wlan0 up && service network-manager start

it works!
I need to tcpdump just to be definitively sure the fake mac is given to the wifi spot.
thanx for reading guys.
