A spoofed MAC is important for deniability. If they trace your ass back to a hotspot... YOu dont want any direct link to YOUR computer eh?

A MAC address could act as such a link, so lets go change it!

Really, this couldnt get any simpler if you are running Linux. Me, being a Linux user, doesnt know if this can be done on Windows or not.

If using a livedisc use backtrack, macchanger comes by default on it.

ALL of this is in terminal BTW.

Ok, so to get macchanger you type

sudo apt-get install macchanger


TO use it.
hex@hex-laptop:~$  sudo bash
<type in root PW>
root@hex-laptop:~# iwconfig wlan0 down
root@hex-laptop:~# macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
root@hex-laptop:~# iwconfig wlan0 up
root@hex-laptop:~# ifconfig
(check is HWAddress changed)
root@hex-laptop:~# exit
exit
hex@hex-laptop:~$  exit
<terminal closed>

It is THAT easy. Basically I just copied pasted the commands I use there for y'all to see. I am going to take screenshots of every single step tomorrow to improve this guide...

Any questions?

Lugh, thanks I am gonna have the screenshots taken in about 30 mins...

ITS DONE! Nicely .pdf'ed up and ready to rock!
