Sorry, but we can't help you circumvent school security policy by changing the MAC address to one that the system would not reject.

You should go talk with the IT Administrator at your school and get this straightened out. I had to do the same when my 15 year-old brought a Windows 7 laptop to school and it was considered to be an "illegal OS". She can now use it w/o reservation.

Please send me a PM if there is something here that I missed.

I must now close this thread.
