Whats up my /g/s
Currently live in student accommodation and I can't live with this fucking wi-fi. I have to pay £30 to use a stupid code for the network and then it's only for that one device. The MAC address is registered and then I have to Pay again to add more...
Pretty much this is what I need help with: Setting up a router that runs of the existing ethernet in the flat. Changing that router's WAN MAC to the MAC address of my laptop so I don't have to pay for more codes. Then making sure other devices connected to that router are able to connect to the internet.
Discuss how this could be done, also bonus if there's a way to do it using a BT Home Hub 3 because i already own one.

How is just hooking a router up to the existing ethernet not enough?

Because I need to enter a code into a webpage that show's up when you originally connect to the wifi. This doesn't show up however because it's a router. This is why i want to change it's WAN MAC so I can bypass the whole enter a passcode phase

Login into the router you want to use. Go wherever it says clone MAC address. Put the MAC address of your notebook. Plug the router to the ethernet port. That's it.

Where on this router?

We are having a discussion about containment threads right now, so go to (You)rs.

From the router's configuration page. My cheap 15 burger-dollar Walmart router has a page to set the MAC address.

Good luck on that locked down garbage
I'd be willing to bet the firmware won't let you do anything fun like that

Clone your mac address across all your devices with a router you setup.

The red one. And if you were asking where to clone the MAC address, I'm not familiar with the GUI of that particular router. Upload screenshots so we can tell you or click on every option until you find it.
If you don't know what's the MAC address of your laptop open come and type ipconfig /all .

Apparently you cant clone MAC address on that router. Source: http://forums.thinkbroadband.com/dslrouter/4007004-bt-home-hub-3-mac-address.html?fpart=all
If that's true then just get a cheap tp link 841.
