I'm having trouble changing my MAC address in vista. I have attempted to change it using two methods, but both failed. I tried navigating to the properties on my Network Connection and configuring my Network Adapter (Atheros AR5006X) and changing it there. After a reboot the newly entered MAC address was still present (in properties), but upon using IPCONFIG/all, my original MAC address still showed. I also tried using regedt32 and navigating to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}
then navigating to the Atheros subkey and setting the NetworkAddress string to a new MAC address and rebooting. After the reboot, ipconfig/all still shows my original address. I am in desperate need of help and I would really appreciate anyone who could provide even a slight amount of info. Thanks in advance.
