Linux will let you rename them, and I have (If only to prevent my confusion!); one is named ULT WEAR MKD (Marked), the other ULT WEAR. The MKD set has a small sticker giving the last part of the MAC.

As for Windows, I dunno. But the two devices definitely have different MACs. As of last night both were working on both OSes. I'll see tonight if that's still true.

Knowing the way my life usually goes, it won't be.

Case in point: my Win 10 laptop. ATM it's reinstalling 10 via the Media Creation Tool. Why? I had a memory fail and can't recall the Admin password I set. Every method I've tried has either failed or requires admin access...which, Catch-22, is exactly what I'm trying to get by changing the damn password!
The only answer I've found is to reinstall from scratch; luckily I got the product key via the Registry, if I need it. For some reason it will NOT accept my internet password. I'll try retrieving it - again - from my Win 11 laptop. Maybe I copied it down wrong.

- Or input the wrong password, oops! <sheepish>,

Done now. Back to the headphones...

One set, ULT WEAR MKD, is working on Linux. The other keeps connecting - and then disconnecting.

Of course it is. This is me we're talking about.

Trying Windows...
