I am trying to use nrf7002 in accord with nrf52840 to build a wifi sniffer recently. As a begineer of nrf70 series, I use wifi sample supplied in ncs 2.4.0 as a start, which is the "shell" sample. After programming sample app to nrf52840. I got some error form console like down below.

According error msg, I found a related ticket How to avoid the use of OTP memory in the nrf7002
My first question, it seems that nrf7002's OTP need to be pre-programmed berfore using the wi-fi stack. However, I had buy a nrf7002DK that can directly run the sample mentioned above. If that means nrf7002 on the nrf7002DK, whose OTP had been pre-programmed when production?
Anther question is, what if I prefer not to pre-programmed OTP but provide the MAC manually instead. From the application note down below, there indeed exist a way to set MAC manually but not mentioned in detail. If there has any example or guideline about it?
