changing the mac alone wont get a banned system back on psn for this you need to change your console id and psid i believe stoker25 released a tool to do this only problem with it is that its change is not permanant
i belive there may be uses for this a tad down the line as of now its uses are rather limited

maybe now its a little useless, but some day if someone find how to connect to psn (like psp) or when a new cfw will be released, u will be happy that this tool was made

funny thing though i though your console id was really just a hash of a bunch or other id's so then if you were to change the mac address and the mac was part of thr the id's that were factored into the hash value, the if you were to change the mac ,then wouldnt that change the hash value ,and console id?obviously it dont like that , but,then how does it, work? i dont think anyone really knows, or does is the console id hash there to verify that the mac is right, and that the other values that make up the hash are right? either way i dont see why you want to change your mac?

Isn't it literally a single line of code to change the MAC address? On PC it's retardedly simple to change.

Bravo. Now you can hopefully set your console ID and the mac address. Has any one tested this combination?

I doubt it. The only reason it is so easy to do on a pc is because the function is built into your OS.

But yeah, i cannot even begin to imagine a use for this. The only real use for spoofing a mac address is to connect to a network you don't have permission to connect to. I cannot imagine too many people doing that with their ps3.

With this you should be able to unban your console. I really don't figure a lot of people will use this but you never know.
