Select Specific MAC Address


Recommended Posts

Hi - If a differnt forum is better suited for this question, please let me

know.

 

i have a Netgear wireless adaptor connected to my PC via USB and it is

functioning properly.

 

I have Windows XP and problem that I'm faced with is that I have two MAC

addresses being picked up by my wireless adaptor. One signal is stronger than

the other and it always defaults to the stronger signal for obvious reasons.

How can I force Windows or configure it to "lock in" to the weaker incoming

MAC address. The driver for the wireless adaptor does show both and even if i

select the weaker signal MAC address, it ill select the stronger one. So

forcing Windows to select the MAC address that I want would be desired.

 

How can I do that? I didn't see anywhere for example in TCP/IP Properties to

force it. I can see my MAC physical address and you can select IP addresses,

Default gateway, DNS server, Subnet Mask setting, etc., but nothing about the

"incoming" MAC address.

 

Please help!

 

Thanks,

Roger
