the hardware installed on your computer. These are sorted into categories. Click on the Network Adapters section to see all of your installed network adapters.
Step 3 Right-click on your Network Adapter. Select Properties from the menu to open the network adapter’s Properties window.
Step 4 Now Click the Advanced tab. When you click on Advance tab that time properties are open at below.
Step 5 Enter your new MAC address. When you click on Network Address that time right side open the blank box. Now write your new Mac Address in this box. But remember MAC addresses are 12-digit values, and should be entered without any dashes or colons. For example, if you want to make the MAC address “2A:1B:4C:3D:6E:5F”, you would enter “2A1B4C3D6E5F”.
Step 6 Reboot your computer to enable the changes. You can also disable and re-enable your adapter within Windows for the change to become effective without rebooting. Just sliding the Wi-Fi’s On/Off switch like the slider found on ThinkPads and VaiOs won’t satisfactorily disable/re-enable the card.
Step 7 Check that the changes took effect. Once you’ve rebooted the computer, open the Command Prompt and enter ipconfig /all and note the Physical Address of your adapter. It should be your new MAC address.
