At times, you may wish to override the hard-wired address with a different address, an action known as 'spoofing' or 'masquerading'. This strategy can be used to test network configuration or to bypass a router or firewall that filters by MAC address on a network.

Step 5

From the 'General' tab, push the 'Configure' button.

Step 6

From the 'Advanced' tab, select the field that refers to network address, e.g. 'Network Address' or 'Locally Administered MAC Address.'

Change the radio button from 'Not Present' to 'Value,' and type your MAC address into the text box.

Warning

  • Internet Service Providers (ISPs) may have a policy about MAC 'masquerading,' so before attempting this procedure, check with your ISP.

Items you will need

  • A computer with a network interface card (NIC) and driver that supports changing the MAC address
