Hello everyone, this is Anubhav here from GossiPanda
Today I am going to make a video on the topic, Change MAC Address Android How to Spoof
Let's start with the introduction. What is a MAC address? The MAC address is a unique identification number
or simply a physical address ascribed by the mobile, laptop or desktop manufacturer
to the network hardware. It can be a wireless card, an Ethernet card
network interface controller, wireless network interface controller or model. Next is, what is the need for changing your MAC address
When we carry out some task, every time there lies a reason behind its operation
So we must know some solid reasons why must we need to know the processes of changing address
and what are its benefits. The most important is to protect from hackers
over the public network like railway stations, airports, office premises etc. Next is, by changing the MAC
or by spoofing it, we can have an access to some restricted networks
by acquiring a port flow MAC required to get access over that specific network
Next is, how to find MAC address in your device? There are various methods to find MAC address on your device
starting with one by one. On Android phone, go to settings, click about the phone
click all specs, scroll down and click on status, then click on Wi-Fi MAC address
Next is, on the laptop. Press Windows and R key both simultaneously
on the laptop type ncpa.cpl in the open window in the open line of run windows
Right click on your local network or the Wi-Fi connection you are currently connected to
Click on status. In the Wi-Fi status window appearing, click details to open network connection details
Here the physical address is only the MAC address. Next is, how to change MAC address in Android
First one is without root access. Second one is with root access
Before hoping on to the above two methods, we must have to check the root status of our phone
with a site only when we can select one of the two ways
either rooting or without rooting. For this, a simple way is to download
a root tracker app from Android. I downloaded root tracker basic. This is a free app
As you can see the image below my device is not rooted
So I will first tell the without root access method. If your Android device is not rooted
then no problem. You can then also change your MAC address. Just download the terminal emulator application
Note down the original MAC as it is very useful to not change the first one
To not change the first six digits as discussed above. Open the emulator and type ip link show on the terminal
A large variety of data is shown on the terminal. Choose the one matching your original MAC structure
Now type ip link set. Second is with root access. If your device is rooted, then that is well and good
But then also you will need two apps to carry out the MAC spoofing
The two apps are terminal emulator and dgbox app. Last but not the least, conclusion
I hope you find the ways to get your MAC spoofed or finished
