evohome early access to BETA Firmware

I normally log in to TCC and find the MAC address there.

Go to 'view settings' for the comfort system.

But yes, it IS the same as the MAC address in WiFi settings.

Thanks Paul - yes, they are the same. Forgot about it being there also.

Or just take the front off the thermostat.

For anyone worried about the beta nature of this firmware, Ive been running it and haven't noticed any problems.

P.

I'm not worried about the stability of the firmware - I'm sure it will be fine and Honeywell are just being over cautious, (as always) however a beta test without a proper feedback mechanism is not as useful as one with... so if any issues are encountered with the new functionality, unexpected side effects or bugs, or just feedback on how the new features have been implemented, it's nice to know what the correct feedback process is depending on the nature of that feedback.

I suspect most of us will just post our thoughts and comments in this thread anyway, but I thought I'd ask.

Fair point. This isn't a formal beta - this is just me widening up the community earlier access. So beta is possibly the wrong wording. We are happy to accept outreach directly or discussed here.
