  1. How can I find a MAC address of LAN device from old computer hard drive.


    My old computers motherboard died. And I bought a new computer and kept the old HDD. But my internet connection is bound to the old computer LAN MAC address. I have tried to find it in the old drive windows register, but there is not defined. Is in windows an option like in Linux, that you can search the logsin the HDD and find the Mac addresses used in the past? Thanks in advance for any advice.

  2. Change Mac address

    The MAC address is like your devices ID ,so short of being able to change very core settings ,you're not gonna be able to do anything unless I'm mistaken.

    Maybe you don't need to change your MAC address, what is it you're trying to accomplish?

    Spoiler: I found this change mac w/o root I can't say whether or not this is an effective method it's just a method I found after searching this topic .
    I cant say whether or not it is "safe" or if the software required is free. use at your own risk.


    Change MAC Address of Android Devices without Root Access

    Go to Settings>About Phone>Select Status and then make a note of the current MAC Address of your Android device.
    Download the Android Terminal Emulator application from the Google Play Store. You can directly navigate to the Android Terminal Emulator Google Play Store download page by clicking here.
    Launch the above application on your Android device and then type “IP LINK SHOW”.
    Note the interface name of your Android device from the list.
    And then type in the command below,
    ip link set interfacename XX:XX:XX:YY:YY:YY
    Replace interfacename with the Interface Name of your network that you noted in Step 4 above and XX:XX:XX:YY:YY:YY with the MAC Address you wish to set.
    And that’s it. The MAC Address of your Android device will now be modified/changed.

    "With the new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive, Mac users now have a convenient and stylish way to quickly charge their iPads with the bonus of plenty of new storage capacity for their Mac computer," said Jonathan Huberman, president of Iomega Corporation. "With more than nine million iPads sold in the last quarter alone, the new Mac Companion Hard Drive is the perfect complement for all those iPad owners.

    Who wouldn't want the ultimate desktop hard drive for Mac computers?
    Available in 2TB* and 3TB capacities, the new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive utilizes a fast 7200 RPM 3.5-inch hard drive formatted HFS+ for compatibility with Mac computers right out of the box. Rather than sitting off to the side and being in the way, the space-saving design of the Mac Companion Hard Drive allows it to fit perfectly on the base of your Apple iMac or your Apple monitor.

    Of the many features included with the Mac Companion Hard Drive, Mac users may most appreciate the first-of-its-kind high powered USB charging port for their iPad, iPhone or iPod. (Apple portable products sold separately.) The charging port is a high-powered 2.1 Amp hookup that makes it easy and convenient to charge your iPad and other portable Apple devices so they’re ready to go when you are.

    Adding peripheral devices to your Apple iMac computer is no problem with the new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive. The stylish drive includes two FireWire 800 ports, one USB 2.0 port and a two port integrated USB 2.0 hub that lets you connect multiple devices such as a printer or other external storage device. The Mac Companion Hard Drive doesn’t require the user to buy extra cables – the drive comes complete with one FireWire 800, one conversion FireWire 400-800, and one USB 2.0 cable.

    The new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive is the only major branded external HFS+ Mac desktop hard drive on the market today that incorporates a high powered Apple device charging port and a two-port USB 2.0 hub.

    How much storage space is available on my desktop hard drive?
    Users of the Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive never have to ask that question because a handy capacity indicator gauge lets them know approximately how much space is available to store their data. Four LEDs on the front of the Mac Companion Hard Drive tell you the total capacity of the data volume that is being used to store files:
    • 4 LEDs lit white: less than 20% capacity in use
    • 3 LEDs white: 20-40% capacity in use
    • 2 LEDs white: 40-60% capacity in use
    • 1 LED white: 60-80% capacity in use
    • 1 LED red: more than 80% capacity in use
    Iomega Protection Suite, Mac Edition, included
    Owners of the new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive also receive a powerful suite of software solutions bundled with their drive:
    • Iomega QuikProtect for simple scheduled file-level backup
    • MozyHome Online Backup for convenient online backup of up to 2GB free
    • A free 12-month subscription of Trend Smart Surfing for Mac allows users to shop, bank and surf online while staying safe from attacks to your identity and confidential information
    Availability and Warranty
    The new Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive is available worldwide in two capacities: the 2TB model is $195.00, and the 3TB model is $295.00. (Pricing is U.S. suggested retail.) The Mac Companion Hard Drive will initially be available exclusively at Apple retail stores and the Apple online store. Later this month, the product will be available from additional retailers, etailers and at www.iomega.com.

    Both models of the Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive include a three-year warranty with registration.

    How can I find a MAC address of LAN device from old computer hard drive.

    A question about MAC Address

    No worries. MAC Addresses are NI (Network Interface) specific.
    Each Network Interface will have its own MAC Address.

    So a modern computer with support for Wired Network (LAN Interface) as well as other types of network connectivity like Wireless Network (WiFi)
    will obviously have multiple MAC Addresses, one for each Network interface.

    Here's an example...

    WiFi has 1 MAC address.
    Built-in Ethernet Port has 1 MAC address.

    Each Bluetooth device has a unique 48-bit Bluetooth device address (BD_ADDR) - different.

    Does this help? *Smile
