ok, the situation is like this, I have cracked several routers in different places, just so that I have internet connection whenever I go to those spots, coz i don't have a post paid mobile subscription plan....I have a feeling that I might get busted one day, if one of the router owner found out that there's someone connected to their router, and I think the the mac addresses of the computers that are connected to a router are being displayed in the router administration control panel right ?.....so my question is, how will I hide my identity whenever I'm connected to any of the routers that I cracked ? ...am using an ubuntu 11.04 OS

I was gonna post to put a towel on it, but I srs'd :P

lol don't bother. They can't trace you with only your MAC... they can, however, know that when you are connected, nothing more. Unless you enrage the government so that they have to plan take-down operations.... in all honesty just use the internet and don't worry about anything.

Also with Linux you can just change the MAC with macchanger (requires root), I think it is in the ubuntu repo.

ahh, that makes it much easier.


Yes, your MAC address is shown in the logs of the router. The address can be traced to you if you bought the hardware with card or anyother way that makes you identifiable. However, you can spoof it using ifconfig in ubuntu.


First, you can view your unique MAC address by doing
Code: [Select]
sudo ip addrThat will display "all" your interfaces and the name of the hardware on your machine.


Normally, the interface you want to change is wlan0, however I've seen it named wifi0.
The MAC address you are using is on the line under the WiFi card's interface name, the line with link/ether.




Now to actually change it, you will have to do this.
First, take down the interface so that you can modify it properly.
Code: [Select]
sudo ifconfig interface# downreplace interface# with the card's interface name and number.
Then change it using
Code: [Select]
sudo ifconfig interface# hw ether MAC-address(for example: 4c:22:d0:c8:92:ae)
and then ofc bring it up by doing
Code: [Select]
sudo ifconfig interface# up



Or just use macchanger :)
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install macchanger macchanger-gtkand then to fake the mac simply do
Code: [Select]
(sudo) macchanger interface#and the rest is done automagically.
or you can use the gtk(GUI) version.
Code: [Select]
sudo macchanger-gtkWhich is more noob friendly :) .




Either way, you really don't have to worry, they won't know if you cracked into their servers or not, as the event already happened and you've got the password.
Hope I helped you.
