The update takes effect immediately without a reboot and stays intact even when you boot up the computer tomorrow.
To change your MAC address, run the program, click the Random MAC Address button followed by the Change Now! button. MAC address can actually be changed directly from Windows but the easiest way is to just a free program called Technitium MAC Address Changer. I bet by now you should know the power of spoofing your MAC Address. If the trial period has expired or is pending to reset every month, you can easily bypass this restriction by changing your MAC address. Other than that, some time limited shareware such as Hotspot Shield that uses your MAC address to keep track of the free usage. It has a MAC Address Filtering feature where you can set up a list of allowed clients and use the wireless connection. Here’s an example of Belkin Play Max F7D4401 v1 router. A hacker can easily find out the authorized MAC address, change their network card’s MAC address to the authorized ones and poison the ARP cache to prevent the owner’s machine from connecting to it. Most of the time they’d also enable a second line of defense which is the MAC address filtering to only allow authorized devices to connect to their wireless network but they’re wrong.

WEP encryption is very weak and can be cracked in less than 5 minutes using BackTrack Linux. In another scenario, some people may still be using WEP encryption for their wireless network because some old devices don’t support WPA. So basically your ISP is capable of tracking your location by your IP address, time and the MAC address of your modem or router. Only your Internet Service Provider (ISP) can detect the MAC address of your modem or router. One thing you should know is the MAC address on your computer’s network card will not get passed out to the Internet so there is no way a website or an Internet server can capture this information. To view your network card’s MAC address, just run the command “ ipconfig /all” in command prompt and refer to the value of Physical Address. Although these information can be configured to have the same, it would cause conflict and connection problems.

So given all the above, probably not feasible.Īnyway, for what it is worth, that is the one IPv4 source address "spoofing" technique I know of that in theory allows full bidirectional communications with no need to hack into routing tables.Every network card contains a unique code called MAC address that is permanently assigned to it, similarly like every computer requires a unique IP address to be connected to a network. Some firewalls screen out IPv4 packets containing the LSR option. Some stacks do this, some don't, and some it is configurable.

Then, so long as your host knows how to intercept the return packets (because your machine doesn't appear as the destination host, just as a router,) your packets can appear to be coming from somewhere else.Īll of the above requires a bunch of special software (I write IPv4 and IPv6 stack testing software that does that sort of thing.) It also assumes the target stack responds by inserting the loose source route option into the return packet with the source route reversed. First, one must set the IPv4 source address to whatever IPv4 address you want to appear to be coming from, then insert the IPv4 loose source route option into the IPv4 options such that at least one of the IP addresses in the route contains your real IPv4 address. I've yet to try it on the Internet, but in theory one could use the IPv4 header "loose source route" (LSR) option to possibly accomplish the desired goal.
