May 01, 2020  Send emails from your address. This is probably the most obvious thing hackers can do with your email address, and it’s a nuisance for sure. Once hackers have your email address, they can use it. Its you who is the responsible person for the actions that happen on your wifi networks. You are legally respoible for your networks traffic.You can do protect your wireless entwork from unauthorised access by following some simple steps below 1.D. Dec 25, 2019  1. Hacking with MAC address: Here I’m gonna share with you hacking by using the MAC address. There are a few steps you need to follow for hacking someone else WhatsApp. First, you need to borrow your victim PHONE. You can ask him/her to give their phone for some time. Then you need to go to their settings. Aug 05, 2016  Obviously, an open network will make it easy for someone to steal your Wi-Fi, and the older WEP security is easily hacked, so avoid it at all costs. NetSpot is a good alternative for Mac users. Most WiFi routers are hacked because the owners did not take the time to secure them. Always change the default administrator's username and password to something long and obscure. Always enable wifi encryption and authentication, so that every device must provide an authentication key (password) to gain access to the router. Sep 15, 2019  A MAC address is a string of 12 numbers and letters that serves as a unique. identifier assigned to a specific internet-connected device — for example, 08:6D:41:00:00:01. The first 6 characters provide information about the company that manufactured the device (or its internet adapter), and this information can be checked using sites such as.

For the two decades that the internet has been in our lives, despite all the changes and technology improvements, one constant has remained: pokey connections. Frustration quickly sets in when pages won’t load, videos buffer, or email crawls to a halt. Here are five common problems and solutions to try.

1. Internet thieves

One of the best things about Wi-Fi is the easy access it provides to the internet. But, if your network password is too simple, there could be more people tapping into it than you originally bargained for.

Obviously, this isn’t something you want. Networks with weak passwords or no passwords can be accessed by almost anyone. Use a free program called Wi-Fi History View to review each device that has connected to your network, and look for IP addresses you don’t recognize.

Prevent this by first changing the password for your router. If you don’t know where to find it, a site called RouterPasswords can help you locate the manufacturer’s default password. From there, create a password that is complex and difficult to guess. Click here to see a simple formula for creating secure passwords you can actually remember.

2. Congestion

This is a problem in crowded neighborhoods or apartments. When too many people try to connect at the same time on the same Wi-Fi channel, connection speed is significantly impacted.

When your connection slows during peak hours, usually in the evening when everyone gets off work or on Sunday night when The Walking Dead is airing, that’s a sure sign of congestion.

Fix this by selecting a different channel for your router. If you have a 2.4 gigahertz frequency router, there are usually 11 channels to choose from. Channels 1, 6 and 11 are recommended but try other channels to find a faster connection. Or buy a new 5 gigahertz router.

3. Outdated equipment

Wi-Fi routers are not all created equal. “AC” routers are a step up from the older “B” and “G” models and even 'N' models. They have more features and offer better performance. If you’re shopping for a new router, that’s what you want to look for.

AC routers have a maximum spectral bandwidth of around 8 x 160MHz, compared to the 4 x 40MHz standard of N routers. In other words, the increased bandwidth allows more data to be transmitted without slowing down.

4. Your router’s security settings

Aside from protecting your network from unauthorized bandwidth usage, which could slow down your network without your knowledge, did you know that the type of wireless security you use could impact your overall speeds too?

If your network is Open (no security) or is using WEP, change the security setting immediately! Obviously, an open network will make it easy for someone to steal your Wi-Fi, and the older WEP security is easily hacked, so avoid it at all costs.

This leaves you with WPA, WPA2 with TKIP or WPA2 with AES.

WPA and TKIP are what you want to avoid. Not only are these protocols older and insecure, they can actually slow down your network.

The best option is WPA2 with AES. AES is a newer and more secure setting that lets you achieve higher speeds. Click here for additional tweaks you can make to get more out of your router.

5. You’re too far out of range

Sometimes the easiest fixes are right there under our noses. Routers are not designed to transmit signals over long distances, so there may be hot spots and dead zones in your home.

To map out your network, use a tool called HeatMapper. It helps you see where Wi-Fi signals are strongest in your home or office. HeatMapper is a free download for Windows users. NetSpot is a good alternative for Mac users.

Once you’ve identified the problem areas in your home, you have a few options available. One option is to purchase a Wi-Fi extender that can boost the range of your router’s transmission. Wi-Fi extenders range in price from around $20-$120, depending on the features included in the model. However, a mid-range extender should work just fine. Click here for a full breakdown of Wi-Fi extender options.

The second option is to purchase a mesh system. The $500 Eero Home Wi-Fi system promises “no more dead zones” in their product description. A mesh system consists of a series of smaller routers that sync with one another to boost the coverage area of your network. Spread these mini routers here and there throughout your home, and you’ll have a strong connection no matter what room you’re in.

Newbies should follow above stated methods (which I am explaining below) to hack WhatsApp account.

How To Find Wifi Mac Address

1. Hack WhatsApp by changing MAC Address

Media Access Control (or MAC) address is a 12-character unique identifier (e.g. 01:2b:45:6d:89:3X) for a specific piece of hardware, like the network adapter located in WiFi devices. So, it can unique identify a hardware. WhatsApp in a person’s phone is not only bounded by his/her phone number but it is linked to the device’s MAC address too. So, even if you try to install WhatsApp in a new device using victim’s phone number, it doesn’t allow you to activate the WhatsApp account because of MAC address conflict.

In this method to hack WhatsApp using MAC address, I will tell you how to hack a WhatsApp account by properly spoofing MAC address so that your device mimic victim’s smartphone and hence you’ll be able to hijack his/her Whatsapp:

Step 1 – The first step is to uninstall WhatsApp from your own device. Install WhatsApp from the device where you want to install verify victim’s WhatsApp account. You can do this in 3 ways:

Using
  • by simply dragging WhatsApp app icon to home and drop it to Uninstall option
  • by locating WhatsApp App in your Installed Apps list, opening it and tap Uninstall
  • by searching WhatsApp in Google Play and tap on Uninstall button

If you have to uninstall your main WhatsApp as you don’t have any other device to hack WhatsApp separately, don’t worry after this hacking process you can reinstall your WhatsApp. However it is recommended to follow this tutorial on how to properly backup & restore WhatsApp so that you won’t lose any data (messages, photos, videos, audio, etc.).

Step 2 –Once you have uninstalled WhatsApp from your smartphone, you need to acquire victim’s smartphone for a moment. Try to acquire it in such a situation that he/she won’t find it suspicious. Once you gained access to victim’s smartphone, you need to copy the device’s MAC address. To do this, go to victim phone’s Settings >> About Phone >> Status (or Hardware Information in some smartphone) and note down 12-digit Wi-Fi MAC address to some safe place.

Step 3 – Now, once you have MAC address, you can either use your smartphone or PC as a tool to hack WhatsApp account of your victim. All you have to do is change your device’s MAC address to the MAC address you’ve obtained from your victim’s smartphone.

  • If you want to do it using PC then follow instructions provided here to spoof MAC address in Windows. After, use BlueStack or any other Android emulator to install WhatsApp in your PC.

To change MAC address of your Android device, you Android phone must be rooted because changing MAC address requires the phone to have apps like BusyBox, MAC Address ghost app installed which only work with ROOTED android phone. If your phone is not rooted, follow these steps to Root an Android phone.

Now, you need to install BusyBox and MAC Address ghost app to change MAC address of Android. MAC Address ghost app’s settings to change MAC address varies from device-to-device. So, follow this XDA Developer’s Guide to know how to change MAC address of Android for your Android phone.

Step 4 – Once you have changed your device’s MAC address to victim’s phone’s MAC address, it’s time to install WhatsApp messenger again. So, search WhatsApp in Google Play Store again, download & install it. After that, open it and verify WhatsApp with your victim’s phone number (you might need to borrow victim’s phone for a minute again to know OTP WhatsApp sent to his/her number to verify the WhatsApp account).

Step 5 – Once you have verified the WhatsApp, you have hacked WhatsApp of your victim smartphone. Now, whatever messages your victim receive, you will receive that too. You will be able to see the replies victim is sending from his/her WhatsApp and even send reply by yourself on victim’s behalf without any problem.

Once you’ve done with your hacking stuff, you can reinstall this WhatsApp, change your device’s MAC address to the original one, install WhatsApp with your original number and start using WhatsApp normally again.

2. Hack WhatsApp Online

It is the easiest and quickest trick to hack a WhatsApp account if you are in safe zone. And, by safe zone I mean you are 100% sure that victim will not check his WhatsApp when you use it in his behalf. And, don’t worry, you don’t need to connect victim’s phone in your PC using USB cable or something, victim can keep his phone to himself and you can enjoy hacking his WhatsApp remotely. 😉

If you think you are in the safe zone where you are totally sure that victim is not using his WhatsApp right now & you can monitor him somehow then follow these steps to hack his WhatsApp account online:

Step 1 –You require access to victim’s WhatsApp at least once without his consent. In this trick to hack WhatsApp online, we are utilizing WhatsApp Web feature (web.whatsapp.com). If you get a chance to access victim’s WhatsApp without his consent, take his phone and browse https://web.whatsapp.com from your PC/Laptop.

Step 2 –You’ll see a QR code at the webpage. Now, in victim’s WhatsApp, tap 3-dots button available at the top-right corner which will open up a menu. Choose WhatsApp Web from it and it will open a phone’s camera as scanner inside WhatsApp. Use it to scan QR code you see at web.whatsapp.com

Step 3 – Once you’ve scanned, you’ve connected victim’s WhatsApp to your PC which you can you to send/receive messages of victim’s WhatsApp, view previous messages and spy on a WhatsApp account.

As WhatsApp Web is a authentic feature from WhatsApp (and not a hacking tool) so WhatsApp put a notification in notification bar when you use victim’s WhatsApp online through web.whatsapp.com. That’s why you need to be sure that victim will not check his phone while you’re using his WhatsApp.

3. Hack WhatsApp using Spy Software/Apps

If you want to skip the technical steps of hacking a WhatsApp account or if you want to be extra precautious, then their are some good spy apps which can help you. They stealthy sit in victim’s smartphone and provide you full excess to their call logs, text messages, calendar notes, emails, etc. They also provide features to record or listen call, spy on WhatsApp conversation, view WhatsApp multimedia (photos, videos), listen to sent/received audio or music, etc. remotely.

It allows you to spy victim’s SMS, social network activities, WhatsApp chats, location (GPS tracking), call (logs, call record), photos & videos, emails, etc. You are provided with a online mSpy account which you can access using any web browser to track activities of you victim(s).

5. Hack WhatsApp using Mercury Browser

The most widely used hacking tactics evolve vulnerabilities of targeted apps/system or vulnerabilities available in connected apps or system. Even if WhatsApp developers have made WhatsApp very secure by providing end-to-end encryption, two-step verification and lots of other security mechanisms, other apps which users install in their phone might not have same level of security.

And, in some of these apps, developers have left such vulnerabilities which keep other apps & whole phone on risk. For example, the recent vulnerability found about WiFi transfer apps which left the ports open which can be utilized by hackers to extract any data from target smartphone.

Similarly, Mercury browser app has a vulnerability which is being utilized fairly by hackers to hack any person’s WhatsApp who have this browser installed in their phone.
