Bug Description
Just reboot with 'adb reboot', and you'll noticed that sometimes it boots with a default wlan mac address, instead of the real one available in the phone.
Wrong mac:
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:4c:11:22:33
inet addr:192.168.2.57 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::290:
Correct mac:
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr a0:0b:ba:c5:fd:da
inet addr:192.168.2.63 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::a20b:
Putting the interface down/up makes it get the right mac address when the default is used, so this might be a race between driver, firmware and network manager.

This seems to be frequently causing quite a bit of trouble with the automated test runs on ubuntu-touch on maguro
