Can anybody tell me the way to change MAC of wlan0
?
I have tried macchanger
commands but nothing works (Ubuntu 12.10-Broadcom Network Adapter).
This is what I am getting:
I have tried the following:
shivendra@shivendra-Rev-1-0:~$ sudo ifconfig eth1 down
[sudo] password for shivendra:
shivendra@shivendra-Rev-1-0:~$ sudo service network-manager stop
network-manager stop/waiting
shivendra@shivendra-Rev-1-0:~$ sudo macchanger -a eth1
Current MAC: 00:21:00:72:9c:d5 (unknown)
