I think he said it "isn't worked one time", which would translate into "it didn't work once" in normal English, lol.
If changing it through software didn't fix it, you're pretty much screwed. Port forwarding obviously won't fix anything. The only reason you'd do that is if you couldn't get the WRLauncher to update or something. Not if you're hardware banned.
If you're desperate, you can just buy a new network adapter. They're really cheap. PB staff have said before that hardware bans ban your MAC Address, which is only present in network adapters, not in all the parts of your computer. There's no need for MAC addresses on other parts because you don't need to identify each other in a network, but you do for a network card.
So either get a new network card or find a new hobby :P
lol cus his english sucks doesnt make sence
oh and if you buy a new network card and you are HW banned, that will just be added to the ban list, they ban more than just your MAC, they ban like every part of your comp that has a serial
Sorry, I was stupid in my last post D:
You don't need to replace all your computer parts. I'm pretty sure the only numbers it blocks are in your HD and network adapter. I did some reading, and apparently PB makes a hash using the information from those devices. Stuff like number of drives, MAC address, SMART address and serial number all get pasted into some kind of formula, then PB uses that number to identify your computer.
So yeah, good luck :O
Your problem is probably that the hardware spoofer doesn't cut it. MAC addresses are easy to change, and you can just disable SMART through BIOS. But the serial number ban is unique to each ban I think, so you need to actually know how to reverse the ban to remove it. A generic hardware spoofer won't do the trick.
