There are ways of hiding your computer’s MAC address. But first, let’s explain what a MAC address is. MAC stands for Media Access Control. It is a unique identifier assigned to the network interface or simply the network card so it can communicate on the network. It is most often assigned by the device manufacturer and is stored in the hardware itself.
For ways of hiding your computer’s MAC address, you can use a program that is designed to hide the computer’s MAC address. One example of this program is the one called Hide My MAC Address.
