Default Can i Sniff out MACS with no connection (Sounds silly , hear me out ,lol)

Sorry if this is a very daft question as im not to familiar with the modems.

right im trying to help a friend get there flashed modem on the go,their internet/broadband has been cut of,though they still get digital tv(Modded) coming in. They need to sniff out some macs to swap. Is there a way to sniff for macs in this situation?

Thanks for reading

cheers stev , yes im just a few doors away. I was going to sniff for macs from my home & they could have swapped them. One problem though,my network at home is always to busy so disconnecting routers ect is a no go area. i tried scanning the way it is but it never produced any results.

by the way what program do you recommend?

pm received mate ,cheers
