So I found Ryans Automator to do this at iamthekiller but it was not 100% perfect, so I added some of JosteinB’s suggestions from his blog and out came an AppleScript Application called AirPortClown, which you can download here:
And it looks something like this:
The source code is of course included in the download. MacDaddyX didn’t work for me and aaspoof is Shareware.

Great job! Any plans to add more features. Maybe some similar to what MacDaddyX used to offer?
Hi, I tried to keep it as small and flexible as possible. In fact, it should be so simple, that you can add any functionality you want. Unfortunately, AppleScript doesn’t provide anything more complex than what you see (in terms of GUI).
I could do something in MacRuby, but that would only run on Snow Leopard (which is quite okay for me). But that would just make it more vulnerable to problems and put too much overhead into it. AirPortClown does what it should – here and now. And in one month it may have to be fixed again, who knows :)
Didn’t make nay changes for me, the box came up saying my MAC address was now ***** but just gave me the same old address.
I’m running macbook pro, 2.53Ghz Core Duo 2, osx 10.6 snow leapard.
Mind you, I am so new to this the umbilical coed is still attached.
Hey, i just tried airportclown on my snow leopard macbook pro ( intel) and it also gave me back the same exact mac address. Nice simple design, just didn’t work for me. :(
So I downloaded my own app and ran it and – the same error as you guys have. So I thought “What the…?”
However, making sure that the Airport is turned ON but NOT connected to any network, I began entering the commands of the script directly into the terminal, and it worked.
Surely weird enough, AFTER that, AirPortClown worked as expected. When I was connected to a network, it refused to work. Plus, some addresses he would take, some not.
Well, what happens when you terminal the commands directly? E.g:
sudo ifconfig en1 lladdr aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
I hate this stuff :)
lol, doing the commands directly into terminal did not work for me either. But going into network preferences and changing the settings so their are no preferred networks. Ran the app and it didn’t work, then, the app made it disconnect from the numerous networks around me being airport had no preferred networks, then running the app again gave made it work. nicely done with this app, very cool. :D
Works for me, thanks a lot!
