I live in an apartment that provides WiFi that has MAC address whitelisting with a cost per MAC address slot.
What hardware/software can I use to connect to their network and rebroadcast in a new network so that all my devices can connect but the WiFi provider only sees one MAC address connecting?
I’ve tried a WiFi range extender but it appears to be forwarding the MAC address of the my devices
To be clear, the ISP broadcasts its own SSIDs throughout the apartment block and I don’t have access to any physical network sockets
Came here to recommend the gl.inet range. Folks love em on cruise ships for the same purpose as what you want.
I’m tempted to bring one with me to a hotel so I can bring a wifi enabled camera to watch my gear too, and not have to set it up with the wifi. If you need to authorise it with a web portal, often what you do is you connect with your phone (turn off random MAC), authorise on the phone, then connect to the gl.inet and have it spoof your phone’s Mac.
They can also support VPN too.
I’ve got a gl.iNet Mango that I bought on a whim a long time ago. I haven’t needed to use it much, but I like how it’s cheap and tiny and cute and runs OpenWRT from the factory. It’s definitely endeared me to that brand.
