    Technitium MAC Address Changer is a free program that allows users to change the MAC address of their network interface card, bypassing the original hardcoded address. It has a simple interface and supports Windows 2000 through Windows 8. The program works by writing a new MAC address value to the Windows registry, which Windows then uses instead of the default address set by the manufacturer. To change the address, users select their NIC, enter or randomly generate a new MAC, and click "Change Now."

    Technitium MAC Address Changer allows you to change (spoof) Media Access Control
    (MAC) Address of your Network Interface Card (NIC) irrespective to your NIC
    manufacturer or its driver. It has a very simple user interface and provides ample
    information regarding each NIC in the machine. Every NIC has a MAC address hard coded
    in its circuit by the manufacturer. This hard coded MAC address is used by windows
    drivers to access Ethernet Network (LAN). This tool can set a new MAC address to your
    NIC, bypassing the original hard coded MAC address. Technitium MAC Address Changer is
    a must tool in every security professionals tool box.
    There are some famous, commercial tools available in the market for USD 39.99 to as
    much as USD 2499!, but Technitium MAC Address Changer is available for FREE. We
    don't charge for just changing a registry value! Also knowing how this works doesn't
    require extensive research as some commercial tool providers claim! Read how it works
    (below) for more details.

    How Does It Work ?

    This software just writes a value into the windows registry. When the Network Adapter
    Device is enabled, windows searches for the registry value 'NetworkAddress' in the key
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-
    11CE-BFC1- 08002bE10318}\[ID of NIC e.g. 0001]. If a value is present, windows will
    use it as MAC address, if not, windows will use the hard coded manufacturer provided
    MAC address. Some Network Adapter drivers have this facility built-in. It can be found in
    the Advance settings tab in the Network Adapter's Device properties in Windows Device
    Manager.

    How To Change MAC Address


    1. Starting MAC address changer will list all available network adapters.

    2. Select the adapter you want to change the MAC address. You will get the details of
    your selection below.

    3. In the Information tab, find the Change MAC Address frame. Enter new MAC address
    in the field and click Change Now! button. You may even click Random MAC Address
    button to fill up a randomly selected MAC address from the vendor list available.

    4. To restore the original MAC address of the network adapter, select the adapter, click
    Restore Original button in the Change MAC Address frame.

    NOTE: This tool cannot change MAC address of Microsoft Network Bridge. Network Bridge
    will automatically use the original MAC address of the first NIC added into bridge with the
    first octet of MAC address set to 0x02.
