Step 0: Open your terminal window, Login as root and type the following commands ...
Step 1:
ifconfig | grep HWaddr /* This lists your mac addresses eth0 and wlan0 */
Step 2:
ifconfig wlan0 down /* Closes your current MAC adddress*/
Step 3:
ifconfig wlan0 hw ether [type preferred address e.g 00:A0:22:A1:12:DD]
Step 4:
ifconfig wlan0 up /* adds new mac address */
Step 5:
ifconfig wlan0 /* test setup, you should now see the new address you entered */
You can create temporary MAC Address in Linux by typing
ReplyDeletesudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether xx:xx:Xx:xx on terminal . The MAC address will change and will stay until reboot. If you wish to change MAC-address permanently, you can use various software's available in market .
