Macchanger Help

[nevermore]

Need some help with macchanger. Using BT4. Was advised to use these commands following card id : 1)airmon-ng stop 2) ipconfig [ card id] down 3) macchanger -- mac [a created mac] and 4) airmon-ng start [card id]. The second command was not recognized. Was then advised to create a changed mac before the aireplay command that is looking for association. This command was 1) macchanger -- show [card id]. Well this showed my existing mac. So I am at a loss about when to, and how to create a changed mac.
Help is appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi fella well its an easy google search but I want to try help out as im still learning and waiting for replies can be frustrating
So here goes.

#iwconfig (to find network card name ath0 wlan0 ra0 eth0 etc fing the one you want to use)

ie wlan0

#macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0

#airmong-ng start wlan0 (monitor mode)
rest is up to you.

check to see if its changed #ifconfig

2) ipconfig [ card id] down
(...)
The second command was not recognized.

The right command should be ifconfig, not ipconfig.

Hi, I think you maade a mistake : it's not "ipconfig" but "ifconfig"; for example
airmon-ng stop wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 down
macchanger -m XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan0
(not sure :) ifconfig wlan0 up
airmon-ng start wlan0
then, have fun :)
Hope this helps ;)

I'm using :

ifconfig interface down
macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 interface
ifconfig interface up
airmon-ng start interface

interface : wlan0, ath0 ......

lol I wonder where he got ipconfig from?

Normally i do

ifconfig wlan0 down
macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 up


check current mac:
macchanger -s

man macchanger?

lol I wonder where he got ipconfig from?

Windoze users... ugh.

My way:

ifdown wlanX
macchanger -r wlanX
ifup wlanX

airmon-ng wlanX
airodump-ng wlan0 OR kismet
