How can I change Mac Intel wifi on my computer?

Although there are some third-party software that allows spoofing the MAC address to a distinct address, we, here at techyv do not recommend using it. Any actions that consists of modifying hard-coded addresses are illegal. And the MAC address is one of it. For Intel 12.x driver package, this practice was already blocked to avoid spoofing the Mac address.

Media Access Control or the MAC address has 6-byte unique number attached to your network adapter card or to your NIC. For your operating system, it composed of 12-digit hexadecimal number and therefore it could not be change.
