Hi and welcome.
Today, I'm going to show you how to spoof your Mac address, but to understand how Mac spoofing works,
you need to know what the Mac address is.
Well, Mac address is also called a media access control, and it is a unique ID number that is given
to your network adapter.
In simple terms is a serial number, and it cannot be changed forever.
Mac spoofing is a technique for changing the Mac address that your network interface appears to have.
This change is temporary and cannot be permanently.
Now, why would you want to spoof for a Mac address?
There are places where you go get the Wi-Fi password, but can't access the network because they activated
Mac filtering.
So spoofing your Mac address can help you access the network.
There are also companies which tracks users by recording the Mac addresses, so spoofing can save you
from that as well.
For Kali Linux, there is a built in program called Mac Changer, which I was demonstrating.
So before you change your Mac address using Mac Changer, it's always a good idea to bring your network
adapter down.
This can be done using the following command.
I ifconfig double wlan0 down.
And now in one single line type Mac, change your dash or double wlan0.
Now these are here is just going to say give me any random Mac address.
As shown on the screen, Mac Changer will show you the current permanent and changed Mac address.
The permanent Mac address will be restored to your network adapter after a reboot.
You can also spoof specific Mac address using the following command Mac.
Change your Dash M and here type your new Mac address.
Now, use the following command to bring up your network adapter.
I ifconfig w lan zero up and to check your new Mac just type ifconfig w lan zero.
So that's it for now.
Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time.
