Nullify bandwidth under Ubuntu and Mint

In today's era everyone wants to be with technology. Everyone uses wifi. When we travel we carry laptops with us. To connect our laptops with external world that is to access Internet we have the facility of wifi. Wifi as we all know is one of well known technology which allows an electronic device to exchange data using radio waves as the medium. It includes the Internet connections. Now often while sitting at places like railways stations, airports etc. in order to connect Internet via your laptop we wish to access wifi which has free and unlimited access to it. But mostly in these places the access to unlimited use of wifi is prohibited or limited and are restricted to a certain time limit which is set or restricted to particular bandwidth. What if we would have got unlimited access to wifi? So in order to get some way out.try this...

 

These are some ways to nullify the bandwidth and the time restrictions with the help of Ubuntu or the mint versions of Linux.

To begin with:

If we wish to connect the Internet through our laptop then our laptop is uniquely recognized by the address called as “Mac address”. This cannot be changed (unless you use spoofing tools).

Step 1) To modify the Mac address of our machine:

In UBUNTU or even in MINT versions of debian Linux we can use the tool called as the MACCHANGER in order to modify the Mac address of our machine.

The command used for the Mac address changing is:

sudo apt-get install macchanger -y

Step 2) ifconfig:

Now go to your terminals (cltrl+alt+t) and type “ifconfig” command

Fig. 1: This is how the screen looks. (For the wired LANS)

Step 3) Disable the Wifi connection

Fig. 2: This is how the screen looks. (For the wireless LANS)

Now we will disable the Wifi connection.

The command for the same is:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 down

Step 4) To Change our laptop's MAC address

Now we need to Change our laptop's MAC address with this command:

sudo macchanger -r wlan0

Step 5) Prompts will appear

You will get prompts about your permanent, current and new MAC addresses like this:

$ sudo macchanger -r wlan0

Permanent MAC: 00:a1:b0:0b:7d: de (unknown)

Current MAC: 00:a1:b0:0b:7d: de (unknown)

New MAC: 1e:b6:72: ee: 8d: 42 (unknown)

Step 6) Relaunch your Wifi connection

After getting up of all these commands, now relaunch your Wifi connection with this command:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 up

Here you are done...enjoy the free unlimited access to wifi.

But mind well after you finish browsing, without fail delete all your browsing history and cookies. When Wifi time/bandwidth limits are reached, change again your MAC address.

GMOTE Control for Ubuntu Linux

Almost 95% percent of world's population uses cell phones. Amongst which approximately 55% to 70% uses cell phones with android applications in it. Android is a Linux based operating system designed primarily for touch screen mobile devices such as smart-phones and tablets computers. It is open source in nature. An android application provides 'n' number of applications for its users. One of the important applications provided by android for Ubuntu Linux users is 'GMOTE'.

       Fig1. Android Gmote

GMOTE supports Linux, Mac and windows. GMOTE can be used over 3G or wifi. GMOTE is the application which has the ability to turn our android phone into a remote control for our computer. GMOTE allows one to start, adjust and control the songs and movies i.e. videos and audios from a distance. All the features and the modes of our standard remote control are supported by GMOTE. Some of the features are play, pause, rewind, volume controls etc. GMOTE contains an in-built file browser which enables the user to view the files on his computer and provides the selection operator to select any which he wants to play from them. It's great if you want to sit back while watching a DVD, or control the flow of songs in your favorite play list. User can sit back on his place watch movies and from his place only he control flow of the movie. GMOTE has the ability of been used as wireless keyboard or as Touch-pad. GMOTE also provides the feature of streaming of the music from computer to the cell phone...

Setting up of the GMOTE needs setting it up at the 2 sides:

1) Sever side setting up:

     The GMOTE server is 1.6 version of Java’s Java virtual machine.

     To confirm the version of the JVM of our PC:

     Go to terminal and type 'Java-version'

     When we install our package of Ubuntu Linux after its success open the terminal and    
     type the command: 

STEP 1)   tar -zxvf GmoteServerLinux2.0.0.tar.gz

STEP 2)   cd GmoteServerLinux2.0.0/

STEP 3)   ./GmoteServer.sh

    Fig 2. This is how the screen at server side will appear.

Now after successful completion of these steps, as the process need the connection permission from the client side i.e. cell phone will be the client in this case it will prompt the password screen box on the screen. With the help of this password, the client can connect to server. The cell phone will also display the password dialog box.

Remember that (For Windows only) it is user must give the GMOTE the location of the media files, in order to access easily these files from the cell phones.

Note that GMOTE server works on port number 8889

2)      Client side setting up :

     For setting up the connection at client side needs fewer efforts as compared to the server 
     side.

            STEP 1) For setting up the connection just go to android market

            STEP 2) Type 'GMOTE'.

            STEP 3) then Click the 'download' option to download it.

  Fig. 3 This is how the screen at client side will appear

Finally after the successful connection of both the server and the client select the ' connect' option to connect the client to the server i.e. the phone to the PC. Thus you as the user will have the great experience of GMOTE feature of the android market for the Ubuntu Linux.

The only limitation of using this application is it restricts the 'distance factor'.
