PC646 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Has anyone used Mac Shift, a free windows program to change your MAC address? I just downloaded it and am testing it out but I thought I would ask around here... http://devices.natetrue.com/macshift/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vector Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 depending on the chipset of your wireless card you dont even need to use another app to change your mac. in the wireless adapters configuration section you can set the mac address to whatever you want. its usually listed as Network address or locally administered MAC address or simmilar depending on the wireless card and chipset, i know this works on all the atheros chipsets, ralink RT73, RT25xx chipsets, broadcom chipsets, and i think ( not totally sure) realtek chipsets, it works on my realtek gigabit nic anyways.

vector Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 i think hes only asking about windows. if you dont have one of those cards i mentioned earlier macmakup should work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacMakeup http://www.gorlani.com/publicprj/macmakeup/macmakeup.asp How do you know it works? Well, if you on a wifi hotspot and change your MAC you have to re-authorize. I.E. if you're at a hotel you have to 'agree' to the TOS again. Say for instance you're stuck in some hotel in crap-hole town before a CON and you need to get some movies for movie night. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
