Changing MAC address

I hope you will not use it for illegal things...but it's sometimes really important for security reasons...

The steps are as follows...

Windows 2000/XP

~Go to start>my network places.Right click and go to Properties.

~Under "General" tab, click on the "Properties" button


~Under "General" tab, click on the "Configure" button

~Click on "Advanced" tab

~Under "Property section" select "Network Address" or "Locally Administered Address".

~On the right side, under "Value", type in the new MAC address you want to assign to your NIC. Do not use "-" between the MAC address numbers.

~Goto command prompt and type in "ipconfig /all" or "net config rdr" to verify the changes.

~If successful, reboot your system.

Get MAC addresses of all computers connected to your network(LAN)


~In command prompt execute "arp -a".(arp is for Address Resolution Protocol)
