Our area (Burnley, Colne, Nelson etc) is Dynamic now. Don't force configs because it won't work.

a quick question, i thought u didnt need to spoof nic macs if u were using a router. am i wrong?

ant16151189 · 20-09-09, 01:22 AM

you spoof nic mac if you have ethernet cable connected to pc. but cause i use wireless im ok.

RORYSON · 20-09-09, 01:25 AM

so eaven though i have modem into router then into my computer i should spoof the nic card. i read that if modem went into router first it was ok..

ant16151189 · 20-09-09, 01:28 AM

well i would still spoof it regardless,

if you are using ethernet cable its always a good idea to spoof nic mac.
