Frequently asked questions
What is MAC Address Generator?
Generate random MAC addresses with an optional vendor OUI prefix, unicast/multicast and UAA/LAA bits, in any format.
When would I actually use this?
Finding out how big a thing will be before you make it: how many gigabytes an hour of footage takes, how long a file needs on the connection you have, how large a photo prints before it goes soft, what bitrate fits the budget you were given.
What is the most common mistake?
Taking the advertised connection speed as the transfer speed. A 100 Mb/s line is megabits, the file is in megabytes, and the eight-fold difference between them is where most download estimates go wrong — before overhead and contention take their own share.
How is MAC Address Generator different from My IP address?
They sit next to each other but answer different questions: My IP address is the one to open when you need it to your public IP address, its version (IPv4 or IPv6) and the city-level location the network gives away — plus what your browser reports, so a mismatched time zone reveals a VPN. Nothing is stored. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.
Is there a tool for the next step?
ASCII Table Reference is the closest one after this: Full ASCII table (0-127) with a decimal / hex / octal / binary / character converter and a text-to-codes panel.
What else is worth having open alongside it?
Citation Generator (APA / MLA / Chicago) and Depth of Field (DoF) Calculator — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.
Where do the figures come from?
Byte prefixes follow the IEC convention where a kibibyte is 1 024 bytes and a kilobyte is 1 000 — drive makers use the second, operating systems often report the first, and a disk that shrinks on arrival is that gap and nothing else. Print sizing assumes 300 dpi unless you change it.
