Just ordered Linksys BEFW11S4 router. Can anyone shed some light on spoofing the mac address when i try to install it. New to networking so a bit nervous of having a nightmare! I am connecting to NTL via ethernet to a silver cable modem.
Any help greatly appreciated,thanks in advance.
If you are using a SACM (ie cable modem) there is no need to spoof the mac address; just make sure that you turn off the power to the modem for at least a minute before connecting the router to it.
You should be able to just plug the ethernet lead that normally goes into the NIC in the back of your computer into the WAN Port on the Linksys.. plug the rest of your computers into the ports available on the router and away you go.. it should be that simple on that router.
