I just posted a response on a securities forum yesterday for a subject I haven’t really thought about in some time, Mac Spoofing.

At first when people where talking about mac spoofing I thought everyone was full of shit(the name of the site is Morally Corrupted so I’m not one to censor my vulgarity for the sake of others). I was going through and using “Macchanger” to create random mac addresses but no matter what I did I just couldn’t connect to the internet. I googled the subject and got responses such as this one that I saw posted in the forum.

Changing your mac address in Linux is very easy you just do

Code

* ifconfig eth0 down
* ifconfig eth0 hw ether “mac address”
* ifconfig eth0 “ip you want”
* ifconfig eth0 up

That unfortunately was not the case for me. Atheros cards can be a bit difficult to spoof with and I required a much different technique. After I googled around some more on the subject and read up on it I found a solution that worked for me, and here it is.

Code

* macchanger -A wifi0
* wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode managed
* ifconfig ath0 up
* delete file “/etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-ath0.pid”
* dhcpcd ath0
