A tutorial repository explaining techniques for gaining internet access on public wireless networks, including MAC address randomization via the spoof-mac CLI utility and captive portal workarounds. It includes a Python-based helper script and step-by-step instructions tested on Mac and Raspberry Pi.
Use cases
- get extra time on a public wifi captive portal
- randomize my MAC address on wifi
- bypass wifi time limits with incognito cookies
- learn how public wifi portals track users
- access internet on a restricted public network
- spoof mac address from the command line
When to choose
- you are stuck on a public wifi portal and need to understand or reset session tracking
- you want a practical, hands-on tutorial on MAC spoofing with a ready-made CLI tool
- you work on Mac or Linux/Raspberry Pi and want tested instructions
When to avoid
- you need a maintained production tool - the repo has had no releases since 2018
- you are on Windows, which is untested
- you want guaranteed legal coverage - MAC spoofing may be illegal in some contexts
- you need modern Python 3 compatibility guarantees
