Wifi and Mac address

[rudeboy]

Hello, i am wondering is there is a way to connect to a computer and view files if you know the mac address of the wireless card...

the problem is i got an Access Point set up on my network using wpa encryption... few ppl i give the password to .. but sometimes i will see several connections on the wireless station list which of course means either someone break the password which i doubt or someone give the password to their friends or so around the area in range to get the signal

i can always change the password and don't share it .. but just for the fun of it i am wondering if there is a way i can use the mac address that from the wireless station and do some "magic" and view files on that person computer .... is that possible??

Hello rudeboy,

Sounds like a plan.

The MAC address would come in handy for joining a wireless access point. Speaking of MAC, your router probably has the ability to filter MAC addresses. This way only the device MAC address that you supply will be able to join the access point. Its no guarantee but certainly adds a additional layer of WiFi security.
