Just buy a new Network Interface Card. 15 bucks. Install it and you are all set. Or you can just get a usb NIC. The MAC address is assigned to the NIC. Each one in the world has its own.

Go to Best Buy. Get a USB NIC. Install the Software that came with it. Plug it into a usb port. Take out the cord that looks like a big fat telephone wire out of the back of your computer and plug it into the Shiny new USB NIC that you just bought. Restart your computer. Go to the site you were banned from and play nice this time. =)

If you got banned by using an aimbot or some other cheat, then your first thing would be to check that website where you got your hack and see if they have software to get you unbanned.
Usually you wouldnt be the only one who got busted, so maybe there is a cheap and simple solution.
If you cant get unbanned by software then you should know that you can be identified by a mac addy because every piece of ethernet hardware has a unique number assigned to it - which is called it's MAC address.
So if you have a built in network card you need to disable that by accessing your puters BIOS setup and then put a new network card into your computer.
Remember that usually the game you been cheating on has got a unique code to unlock online gaming (e.g. a steam account)
You could also have that one banned, so you might get busted again even if you install that new card.

Like I told you in your other 2 questions about this.

They more than likely banned your IP Address, not your MAC address.

Your MAC Address is fixed, and does not change. It is hard
coded into the hardware itself. I have heard that some allow
you to change it, but I have never encountered any.

If they did in fact ban your MAC address, then simply changing
network hardware would probably work. Go buy a network adapter


If they banned your IP, which is what I suspect is the case, the
above will not work. You never said HOW you are connected
to the internet. If you use dialup, simply disconnect, wait 5-10
minutes, and then reconnect. If you use Cable/DSL then
you probably have a Static IP that dosen't change.


I would be careful, however. As in some places, what you are
trying to do is considered a crime.

Ha HA that sucks, but you can't. Your MAC address is on your hardware. That means that unless you get a new computer you are banned

erm, i'm not a mac expert, but i think that your mac address is your hard drive (hd). just go and check their information stuff and see how you can get yourself unbanned, or else just get a new computer or hardware.
