Well I've seen Japanese posts about using the fake Nintendo Zone to score 2 hits, but still no post about what we're doing *sigh*
Here's an example for those interested http://blog.toshikatsu.tanimula.net/2013/08/blog-post.html

Hi there!
Since there there is still no tutorial for setting up the Street Pass Relay on Windows 7, and i just recently managed to do it (with a lot of help from the info already posted on the thread), here is a quick explanation. I already sent this to the OP so he can put it on the first posts and complete the [HOW TO]. Feel free to delete this post when you do it, for clearness sake.
Street Pass Relay on Windows 7:
Requirements:
A wired connection
A Wifi card (i tested this on an old 1390 WLAN card, so i guess most should work).
Mac Shift
Virtual Router Manager
Connect your computer through your wired connection and disconnect from any wireless one.
The Setup:
Just install Virtual Router, unzip Mac Shift on an accesible folder (or just the root of your C: drive) and run the following from a command line with administrator privileges (Type "cmd" without quotes on the search box of your start menu, when the "cmd.exe" file appears, just shift-click it and select "Run as Administrator"):
This will set up a Virtual Wifi Miniport on your network connections.
Then, still on command line, go to the folder where you unzipped Mac Shift (If you unzipped it on C:\, you may want to type "Cd \" without quotes) and type:
*Your wifi name should be the name of your Wireless Network Adapter typed just as it appears on your "Network Connections" folder, for example, for me it was "Wireless Network Connection". Please take in mind that this should be your Wireless Network adapter name, and NOT the one of your just-created "virtual network", nor the name of your wired adapter.
** Mac Address should be typed without ":", for example, 4E53504F4F46
So, this line should look something like:
Run Virtual Router Manager.
Complete the network name (Should be "attwifi")
Put any password you like (remember to set up your connection on your 3DS later!).
As "shared connection", select your Wired Adapter.
Click on "Start Virtual Router", wait a few seconds, and you should get your street pass!
To cycle between MACs:
Just don't close your command line window!
Press the UP arrow to bring back your last typed command, and change the last numbers of the mac address. This will restart your network connections (I stopped the Virtual Router every time before changing my MAC and restarted ir after doing so, but i don't believe this is necessary).
Remember that, when you stop the Virtual Router, you should stop seeing the "attwifi" network, so no problem from neighbors stealing your internet (which was secured anyway). If you want to remove the Virtual Wifi Miniport, just type the following in an administrator privileged command line:
And, to return your Wifi Adapter to it's original MAC address:
Enjoy!
(I hope i didn't miss anything! Please post your feedback!)

Wow. I'm adding this to the Reddit Post now. If this really works you've just made a ton of people's
It gives me the error "The system is not in a state to share internet"
, I hope the live disk linux comes uo soon
Hmmm... I really can't find any evidence our Japanese counterparts have figured this out. Someone who's better than me needs to put this info somewhere in Japanese so they can join in.
I had that problem at first: You probably are trying to connect to the internet and share the connection with the same Network card. Remember that you need to be connected to the internet with a wired connection and your wireless adapter must be free, that is, not connected to any network.
Had that error shown to me too: That's because you don't have the Virtual Network activated. Use the command-line commands i posted, you probably missed theIt gives me the error "The system is not in a state to share internet"
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow
I managed to make it work using only one adaptor (the laptop wifi card). You need a wifi card with the Hosted Network Supported capability. You can check it with this command: netsh wlan show drivers.
With the virtual hotspot method, you have to set a password, so Nintendo Zone wouldn't work, and also you have to set the connection under Internet Settings so the password is saved, and StreetPass will work.

Got a PM from Rynelan on Reddit saying he's got this to work with Windows 8 (assuming using elridge's instructions). He's reporting when he sets a MAC the final Octet is always 1 higher.
"Since the last update and some info on gbatemp I finally got it working.
What I noticed is the following.
If I change my MAC address with macshift. If I enter 4E50534F4F46 my MAC will end with 47.. If I end with 47 it will be 48 and so on
I don't know if its only me but this might be important for people to know to be sure the MAC addresses will be used the correct way for the street passes you want.
Hopefully I help you with this info!"
Hey anyone else noticed this? Could it just be a Windows 8 thing?

Let me try setting the end to 45 and see if I'll get 46.. I'm currently on a windows 7 64 machine, let's try to narrow it down.
Anyone got it on android? I've tried it with both Wifi Tether 3.3 stable and 3.4 on my stock rooted Samsung rom (4.1.2), but my 3DS can't detect the signal from it (my computer couldn't either). The samsung default tether function works well, but I can't spoof mac addresses with that.
Try this on a terminal emulator :
su
busybox ifconfig wlan0 hw ether (mac address here)

Or, I also heard that if you use flash memory, it can act as more "RAM" at least windows tell me when I stick a flash drive into it. -
