Hi. I'm having problems with my airlive WT-2000pci wireless card. I want to change mac address/network address under windows 7 x64bit 7600rtm but with no luck. I'm using latest official drivers for 64bit vista, I have even tried older drivers but nothing helps. When I log onto windows XP i can easily change mac address with device manager>properties>advanced>network address and i just enter desired mac address. This option (network address) doesn't exist in Windows 7. I've done windows 7 update and device manager refers the wireless card as Ralink RT61, not as Airlive WT-2000pci as it did before the update. I've googled for hours but found nothing that could help me. I'm desperate to change my mac address since my Wireless ISP has mac authentication for every account and I have 2 accounts and I want to use them from 1 pc. This is the only thing making me keep dualboot win7 and xp on my machine.
Is there solution for my problem? Regards, Samir, Bosnia.

    Method 2: Using Command Prompt​

  7. Press Windows Key + X and select "Command Prompt (Admin)."
  8. Type the following command to get the list of network adapters:
    Code:
     netsh interface show interface
  9. Identify the wireless adapter from the list.
  10. To change the MAC address, use the following command:
    Code:
     netsh interface set interface name="Your_Adapter_Name" newmac=New_MAC_Address
    Replace Your_Adapter_Name with the name of your wireless adapter and New_MAC_Address with the MAC address you want to set.

    Method 3: Using Third-Party Software​

    You can also use third-party software like Technitium MAC Address Changer to easily change the MAC address of your network adapters. Make sure to restart your computer after changing the MAC address for the changes to take effect. If these methods don't work, you may need to check for specific drivers that support MAC address changes on Windows 7 for your Airlive WT-2000pci card. Please try these steps and let me know if you encounter any issues or need further assistance in changing the MAC address on your wireless card.
