Change your Mac

Ok having a little issue with my utill so for now you guys will have to change the Mac Address manually. Run regedit and look for the following key which is where all your netwok adapters will be located......

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Cl ass\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}]

you will have to look for the subkey that is for your card, the first subkey will be \000. My wildPacket's driver were located at \002 and my Orinoco was at \009. Look for a string value called NetworkAddress, Win 2K will have it and on Win XP you will have to add it yourself. Just double click on NetworkAddress and set the value to what you want your new Mac to be.

I tried to uses Tron's suggestion of 002cdeadbeef and my card would not function properly. I did change it to 022cdeadbeef and it worked great. After you change the Mac just exit regedit, eject your card, reinsert, run ipconfig /all from a command prompt and you will see your new mac address.

I used ethereal and it did register my new mac address with my machine.....

Next project will be to run some testing on my AP with Mac filtering enabled and spoof my card so I can hit the network........
