Re: [Connectivity] Vista connection problems

PS. In my area, you can get as many IP's from comcast.. you're IP will change whenever the mac address of the device the modem's plugged into changes. I've changed mine like 500 times or more for rapidshare downloading etc. Most routers newer routers or older more advanced ones allow you to set your own mac address from the config pages, really comes in handy.

Spoofing and faking MAC addys that many times.

Is that ethical ?

It's not faking or spoofing a mac... It's the equivalent of moving the modem and plugging it into a different box... an xbox, a different pc... everything you plug it into has a different mac address, and pulls a new IP from comcast. Awhile ago I used to just be able to reset the modem to get a new IP, and i contacted comcast because that stopped working.. that's how I learned about it.

If you are not using randomly created MAC's, then you have my apologies !
