No Connection After Changing MAC Address In Kali Linux - Fixed!

(VirtualBox Fix)


 

Problem: You run commands to change your MAC, and then your connection drops.

Fix: 

1) Power off Kali & VMBox and then restart VMBox

2) Go to settings in VMbox and create another connection (bridged or NAT)

3) Now fire up Kali again

4) Run the following commands in terminal

---------------------------------------------------------------


sudo macchanger -s eth0 - check your MAC address

sudo ifconfig eth0 down - knock off your connection

sudo macchanger -r eth0 - Set MAC to random



5) Click top right of home screen and switch to second saved connection


 6) Open new terminal & run the following commands:

ping bing.com                       - check connection

sudo macchanger -s eth0     - check MAC address


Now you should see that your connection is working and your MAC address is different.

 

Commands to change MAC address can be found here.
