Many of the wireless networks I have come across around Male’ during our wardriving are lulled into the false sense of security that if they have WEP and MAC address filters set up on their Access Points / Wireless Routers they are secure.

They are totally mistaken; WEP is easy to break and MAC filters are even easier to by pass.

For those of you Windows users, Code Project has written a freeware MAC Address changer which is available at the Code Project site.

MAC Address Changer is very easy and simple to use. Using this tool is as simple as choosing your desired network card from the drop down combo box, entering a new MAC address, then press the Change MAC ID button.

Try it out to see how easy it is to circumvent the MAC filtering rules you setup on your Access Points and Wireless Routers.
