Practical tips for modifying MAC addresses in Windows systems

The so-called MAC address is a host will have an IP address, and each network location will have a dedicated MAC addresses. If you can modify it if necessary, how do you modify the MAC address in the Windows system?

1. In "hkey_local_machinesystemcurrentcontrolsetcontrolclass4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318000, 0001, 0002" Wait for the primary key, because you may have more than one NIC installed, there may be multiple primary keys like "0000, 0001" Under this primary key, and you can find the primary key, such as "0001", that matches the description of the NIC that you want to modify in the DriverDesc content.

2. Under the primary key mentioned above, add a string, named "NetworkAddress", set its value to the MAC address you want to write continuously, such as "001010101010".

3. Then to the primary key "Ndiparams" to add a "networkaddress" of the primary key value, under the primary key to add a string named "Default", the value of the original MAC address, to write consecutively, such as "001010101010".

In fact, this is just the "initial value" set in the advanced properties mentioned later, the actual MAC address depends on the "networkaddress" parameter mentioned in 2nd, and once set, the value in later advanced properties is the value given by "networkaddress" instead of " Defaul T "gave out.

4. Continue to add a string named "Paramdesc" under the primary key of "Networ kaddress" to specify the description of the "networkaddress" primary key, which can be "network address" (or optionally set, which is just a description, It doesn't matter, this value will appear as a description when you modify the MAC address directly later, so after you restart the properties of the network neighbor, double-click the corresponding network card entry will find an advanced setting, under which there is network address (which you set up in front of the Paramdesc) option, this is the second step in the registry added to the new item "NetworkAddress", the future as long as you modify the MAC address on it. (You can change the Mac back to the original)

5. Continue to add a string named "Optional" under the primary key of "networkaddress" with the value set to "1" to display the "nonexistent" option on the basis of the previous step! (This step does not understand the words to see other people's advanced properties of the network card, do not do this step also does not matter) there is this step then to change back to directly Select this "does not exist" on it!

6. Close the Registry Editor, restart the network card or system, your network card address has been changed well. Open the properties of the network neighbor and double-click the corresponding network card entry to find an advanced setting for network address. Used to modify the MAC address directly, and the Mac can be changed anytime without a reboot.

Changing the MAC address is not a big project, but the steps involved in modifying the registry will discourage you, but experienced users can do it themselves, but if you are not sure, do not change it well.
