Comparative Advantages
Compared to alternative MAC address modification methods, Change MAC Address offers:
- User-friendly interface
- Comprehensive modification options
- Minimal technical complexity
- Rapid implementation
In order to change the MAC address, all you have to do is input a new value and select a manufacturer from the drop-down list, along with the filling method (e.g. fully random, only random device list).
Other options of Change MAC Address let you reset, refresh and look up a MAC address, as well as restart the Internet connection and change the UI language (English or Russian). There are no other settings available through this tool.
The application does not put a strain on system performance, as it runs on a very low amount of CPU and RAM. It has a good response time and quickly applies the new settings. No error dialogs were shown in our evaluation, and the tool did not hang or crash. Thanks to its general ease of use, even novices can quickly figure out Change MAC Address.
In the firmware of the network adapter chip, every network adapter has a unique MAC address embedded by the manufacturer. Sometimes you may need to find out or change the MAC address of the network adapter especially if it is used for Internet access authentication. Some users, for security reasons, opt to hide their MAC address. With our program, you can now easily spoof the MAC address. With a few clicks, users will be able to change their MAC addresses. During this operation, it is possible to select a different manufacturer or generate a completely random MAC address.
Key features:
– Showing the MAC address of your network adapter
– Showing the manufacturer of you network adapter
– Replacing the MAC address with any other address
– Generating a completely random MAC address
– Setting a MAC address of another manufacturer
– Setting a MAC address without changing the manufacturer
– Automatically activating the new MAC address after the change
– And all that in just a couple of mouse clicks!
