    Hi, whenever I change my MAC adress in Kali I cannot connect to the internet anymore until I restart my virutal machine or change back to the MAC it got booted with. Is there any settings I’ve missed or any other fixes?

    I’ve been changing the eth0 interface.

    Hi!
    This is normal, because you are changing the mac of a virtual interface not a real interface, if you use the program to change the mac of a real interface like wlan0 then it would work perfectly, so if you’re using eth0 and the mac is changing then the everything is fine, so just move on.

    Hope it helps!
