This discussion was brought up before, but I recently realized my configuration is not like others. To the guy who wanted to know how to change his MAC address for his Lucent adapter in Windows 2000. Go to the registry (with regedit not regedt32) and search for your MAC address, no hyphens. It should be in HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Control\Class and in one of the GUIDs below will be a bunch of stuff. There will be a series of numbered keys 0001, 0002, 0003, etc underneath each GUID. I found my adapter under the 14th GUID down, sub key 0002. The value you are looking for is "NetworkAddress" It's probably blank, but this is where you enter the desired MAC. After you've entered it, close the registry and disable/re-enable the adapter. Do an ipconfig /all to see your new MAC.
