Usually, I suggest change the last digit in the current MAC address. Otherwise, your OS will not be able to recognize the network adapter correctly. However, you should not change the first 24-bit of the MAC address. You can choose an arbitrary new MAC address to change to. Notice the enp8s0 interface name, TeamViewer guests your previous installation based on this interface's MAC address. TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 The result will look likeĮther 30:9c:23:28:66:bf txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
Inspect current MAC address: sudo ifconfig. Remove TeamViewer's default configuration: sudo rm /opt/teamviewer/config/nf. Stop TeamViewer background service (TeamViewer daemon): sudo systemctl stop teamviewerd. Get the current TeamViewer ID to latterly check if the setup here works as expected: sudo teamviewer info. Otherwise, you can refer to the installation guide here. Hence, if you change the MAC address, then re-configure TeamViewer, the TeamViewer ID will change.Īssume that you already installed TeamViewer in /opt/teamviewer. It does not store any personal data.By default, TeamViewer guests and generates your unique ID based on the MAC address of some specific interfaces of your machine.
