I live off compose in apartments that are managed by the college including the internet. To get on he internet your computer needs must pass some requirements using Cisco software that checks to see if you have the latest windows update, latest definitions for my anti-virus software, and other things. Once im past the check i am able to use the internet but i have a desk top and a laptop and want to use my Netgear wireless router but the college does not allow students to use them because they can not monitor them or something. The schools tech guy said there is a way to use a wireless router but he could not tell me, he did say something about MAC cloning or something. I looked into it and found how to clone my desktops MAC address to my router and use the router for a very short time, maybe 3 minutes then it does not work anymore. FYI: After the three minutes it allows me to the internet but does not let me past the universities log on site to download the Cisco software which i already have on both machines, i think it has something to do with that software, but i do know it is possible. is there a better way of getting past this so i can use my wireless router in my apartment? can anyone help me, thank you! -Chad
