I had the same problem with a Tecknet UL688G USB 3.0 to 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet adaptor. sudo ifconfig en6 ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) works as expected. I fixed this issue by installing my adapter's chipset driver on Mac Os X.Īfter rebooting, the usual command (e.g. I'm using OS x Mavericks and my USB-Ethernet adapter is a Chinese one, the model is AX88772A If I try to change the mac address of my Wi-Fi I can do it. Inet 192.168.1.38 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255Īnswering some questions, yes I have tried with sudo en4 down/up and I thing it's not a limitation because I can change it in Ubuntu. The output of sudo ifconfig en4 again: en4: flags=88 Sudo ifconfig en4 ether 10:0B:AD:C0:FF:EE doesn't have any output. The output of sudo ifconfig en4: en4: flags=88 In Ubuntu the name of the adapter is eth0 but in OS X it's en4 instead of en0. Do you know how can I do the same in OS X? I've also tried with Ubuntu and it worked. The command doesn't return any error but when I run ifconfig again the mac address is still the same. I have tried with sudo ifconfig en4 ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xxĪnd with sudo ifconfig en4 lladdr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xxĪnd with both I got the same result. In my university we have to put a specific mac address but I can not change it.

Now, copy/paste and run this command to make brew command available inside the Terminal: echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' > ~/.zprofileĭone! You can now use USB driver for Gigabit Ethernet Adapter D-3023.I've recently bought a usb-ethernet adapter (not apple) and I get internet connection.Mind you, as you type your password, it won't be visible on your Terminal (for security reasons), but rest assured it will work.
