Every network adapter has a MAC (Media Access Control) address that uniquely identifies it. This MAC address is used for many different purposes. For example, some networks or Internet Service Providers examine the MAC address of every device trying to connect to it, and lets only through only those that are recognized by their databases. The MAC address of a network adapter can be easily changed if you have the right tools for the job. One of these tools is the software called Technitium MAC Address Changer. The program can practically change the MAC address with a few clicks of your mouse.

The installation process is very simple and takes little time to complete. Also, the size of the program is around 2 MB and the system requirements are extremely low. Running the software on every version of Microsoft Windows shouldn't be a problem.

When you launch Technitium MAC Address Changer, it looks into your system and identifies every adapter's MAC address. It also identifies the manufacturer of the adapter, its maximum network speed and other related information. Besides that, it displays some real time information, like the current network speed and the amount of traffic generated by the selected adapter.

The user can change the MAC address to a new randomly chosen address or he can enter the new address manually. Also, he can renew all the IP addresses using the automatic DHCP service or he can set the desired IPs manually. This should only be done by advanced users, because a slight mistake caused by a beginner could cause the network to malfunction. The changed MAC address can be reverted to original at any moment. The software features presets for completing all the tasks automatically, without the user's intervention. The presets are files that have the .cpf format.

Users can create new presets and export them to be used later or he can import presets created earlier. He can also save a report text file, containing all the information regarding the network adapter, like IP addresses and MAC address.

Pros

The software features presets, for completing all the task automatically, which is great for beginners who don't have experience in configuring a network.

Cons

The feature of the software are not enough for an advanced user. Technitium MAC Address Changer is a great program for quickly and easy changing the MAC address of a network adapter.
