   Again, I was wrong.   
   Thank you for clarifying.   
   I was thinking that we clone MAC addresses on the router all the   
   time and it causes no problem.   
      
   But, Jeff (and you) explained we only clone the WAN wired MAC address   
   while Google is stealing our LAN wireless addresses.   
      
   May I presume that Google steals both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz BSSID's?
