Re: changing mac address on madwifi-ng

Robin, Josh,
The procedure I pointed out in my previous e-mail from the Aircrack-ng
tutorials, Script 1 specifically, has always worked for me. You can
use BackTrack v2 Final for testing (remove the first two cardctl
lines):

wlanconfig ath0 destroy
ifconfig wifi0 up
ifconfig wifi0 down
macchanger wifi0 -m $1
wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode monitor

ifconfig ath0 up

Cheers,
