    Hello All,

    Just managed to fit this into my m14x. However I am very keen to change the Mac Address, used to be able to do this with technitium back in the day on a previous machine using the intel 5100 (just had to ensure that the first 2 combinations were like the original cards mac address). Is their not an easy way to do this on this model wifi card ?

    Any ideas would be much appreciated.



    Many thanks

    In linux you can spoof the mac address, I don't know of any windows software that allows you to do it (though I'm sure it exists somewhere).

    Usually it's enough o to go to Device Manager, right click on the card, choose properties, choose advanced tab and find "network address".
    It's an official driver option on all drivers I've seen so I would be surprised if it wasn't there.
