📱 What is a MAC address and why would I change it?

When you turn on the Wi-Fi of your MacBook, it sends out a unique identifier - its MAC address(this has nothing to do with Apple’s “Mac”).Everyone nearby may freely collect this unique identifier and use it to track your movement.

Did you know that your phone does not send out its Wi-Fi identifier, but rather a random, fake one?This is to protect you from the common practice of business to track your movements when you walk around in stores.

With LinkLiar you can achieve the same privacy for your MacBook.Though the MAC address is hardwired into your Wi-Fi, you are free to modify it.

🐷 Can I trust this app?

I’m just an independent developer who invested some time into creating this app.It is open source, so you have full insight into how it works.Click on the Octocat in the top right corner to find out more.

🔩 Is this app maintained?

Every now and then I find the time to develop new features.If you’d like to motivate me, open this project on Githuband give it a ★ in the top right corner.

🔦 Which other apps are out there?

Your MacBook already ships with the tool to change your MAC address.You would just have to enter ifconfig en0 ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff in a Terminal.But that’s cumbersome, so tools like LinkLiar are supposed to make it easier for you.

For macOS, the more prominent graphical apps are WiFiSpoof (commercial)and MacDaddyX (free).Then there is the command line tool SpoofMAC,which unfortunately has no graphical interface.

🕹 What’s it with the name?

The MAC address is sometimes referred to as the link-layer address. You figure out the pun :]

💕 Special Thanks

The icon in the status bar was created by the never-tirediconmonstr (I slightly modified it).

For some Apple Mac users a “mac address” may sound like a reference to the current location of your computer. In this case, however, MAC refers not to your computer but to the unique Media Access Controlcode assigned to every device capable of connecting to a network. The Wi-Fi chip in your Apple computer, iPad, iPod, iPhone, Kindle, Android phone, Windows computer, etc., has a hardware level identifier. This enables networks and other network capable devices (such as your wi-fi router) to differentiate one device from another. a MAC address takes the following format: 01-23-45-67-89-ab

Why change your MAC address?

There are situations where it is useful to temporarily change your device’s MAC address. It can only be changed temporarily as it’s hardware encoded. So it will revert back when you reboot your device. Changing your MAC address is commonly called spoofingthe MAC address. For instance, now I am in London Heathrow airport. They provide free wi-fi access, and yet in their wisdom Heathrow decided to only allow a device to connect for 45 minutes. I have a 4 hour wait for my next flight. I’ve not yet reached the end of the 45 minutes, but there’s a chance the network will lock my MacBook out once the 45 minutes is over. Quite why they have a time limit is a mystery to me. Every person here in the departure area is obviously destined to get on a plane and leave. It’s not as though people can come in here and make use of the Internet without being a passenger. Because the network depends on my MacBook’s MAC address to identify it, changing the MAC address gives me a fresh start. As far as the network is concerned my new MAC address represents a different device from the one that just used up 45 minutes of air time. Some coffee shops are also implementing time limits. I can understand their logic for doing so. It prevents someone from buying one cup of coffee and then spending the rest of the day using the cafe as their office. My local library (in New Zealand) also enforces a time limit. That, again, does not make sense to me. The library is a public service, and providing Internet access is part of the services they offer. People don’t get kicked out after reading books in the library for 2 hours. Why are they booted from the Internet? There are plenty of other situations where changing a MAC address may come in handy.

How to change your MAC address

You can change the MAC address in the Terminal (I am referring to Terminal.app as opposed to an Airport Terminal). There are plenty of articles online explaining how to go about that method. But it is much easier to use an app fit for the purpose. Not only will these apps change your MAC address, they will also generate a new random MAC address. The two apps I have used and recommend are:

MacDaddyX

This is the big daddy of MAC address spoofing apps. It will let you spoof the manufacturer/brand of device too, or ensure the brand remains consistent. For instance, you can generate a MAC address that is a valid Apple device MAC address as opposed to any random device brand. A very comprehensive list of device manufacturers is included in MacDaddyX. Whether or not that feature is useful to you will depend on your purpose for spoofing the MAC address.

This app appears to have been abandoned by the developer. It still works on my OS X 10.8.4 MacBook. You can download it from MacUpdate. For a smoother app, check out the next option.

WifiSpoof

WifiSpoof is a more recent app. You can’t select the manufacturer of your spoofed MAC address, but for most people that’s not important. It looks like this:

For most people I would recommend using WifiSpoof. It works well and sits nicely in the menu bar.

Cookies

Keep in mind some networks might also use cookies to keep track of whether you’ve used up your time limit. If changing your MAC address does not allow you to resume Internet access, look for cookies from the domain utilised by the service you are signing up on. You’ll need to do that in the browser you use for signing up to the Wi-Fi service in question. For instance, here at Heathrow the domain is wifiservice.net. There was one cookie from that domain stored in my browser. I don’t know if I needed to remove it, but I did anyway.
