NWA50AX-PRO alterable MACs??

SteveO

Hi All,

I have a NWA50AX-PRO. Seems that I have a real 'piece of work' neighbor that is practicing his wifi hacking skills on my AP mentioned. I've been getting loads of deauths.

With this said. I need to understand I I am able to change the mac addresses associated with the ethernet PoE and Macs of each of the WIFIs? If so then how?

If not then I request this as an upgrade improvement as this individual is targeting my mac addresses and not the AP names itself and I really do not want to fork out more money for another AP.

Thanks and regards

It is not possible to change AP's MAC address. For WiFi clients, they can only change the MAC with the option <random MAC address>.

However, I don't think changing AP's MAC address can let you eliminate your neighbor since he can still find your SSID. I recommend changing the security option to WPA3 and monitoring if this issue happens again.
