MAC Address Spoofing (?)

I am at college and my the internet here does "not support" video game systems, but I know there is a way to get them to work.

I have the Nintendo LAN Adapter made for the Wii, and I have the ethernet cable that comes with it. I'd tried using it and it didn't work. Then I tried changing the MAC Address of my computer to the same MAC Address as my Wii, which I did do. Then I registered my laptop (with the Wii's MAC Address) to use the school's internet. This works and I am able to go online with my laptop.

However... I then unplug the laptop and plug the wii in... and I've got nothing. It's specifically Error Code 52221, which is the one that means that I'm not allowed on/there's a firewall, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
