Changing MAC ADDRESS - Networking

Hello to all,
I have such a question: Is there any posibility to soft change MAC ADDRESS of my WiFi card? I use Winzard WIZA200 G4.
I am under a Network coverage at work, but access points have an ALLOW LIST by MAC ADDRESS, so I can't connect.
Thank you in advance for every reply.

you mean you have access to the filer lists of ok mac's ?
and if you change your mac to another which is valid what would you do when the other nic with that mac connects ?

Yes, because I'm IT there , but don't have access to access points . Therefore all wireless devices I monitor .
As I supply/repair device's, I always know which MAC address is free for use.

So... no one knows how to change MAC in PDA?

if it's handled in anyway like on normal windows

under
Method 2:
thats all i can think off

Isn't the mac address normally stored in the wifi chip's eeprom or equivalent?

Hello,
I'm not programer for Pocket PC. I don't know where to find the MAC address for PocketPC, but I suppose that is stored in WiFi chip.
What is clear for me, that MAC is not stored in Registry .. at least in free text mode.
@Rudegar: It can't be changed like in Windows like system.

yes it's stored / hardcoded in the nic
both on windows and in pda but on windows at least
it's put in the registry and can be masked there
if thats not dont in windows mobil and the nic is requsted each time
the os need it
one need to capture all msg's asking for the mac and that's a bit of possible complex programming if the os never use it and the nic itself just add it to the packets there is no way to change it

Some got it to work.
Here's a link where someone explains how they got it to work.
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/28397893/re-set-mac-address-.aspx

Thanks a lot Chris & Paul,
Finally changing MAC on the fly is working .
Here are the steps I followed(just detailing them incase someone needs)
Step 1 --> changes to driver
Steps [2-5] from C# application
1) In NDIS Intermediate driver (QueryMiniport function), I made the
following changes
a) When OID is CURRENT_MAC_ADDRESS , open registry , read a
registry name ChangeMAC,
b) if value of ChangeMAC is 1 then read registry value of "NewMAC"
and then convert it appropriately to MAC format
(remove extra unicode characters etc)
c) then do a NDISMoveMemory to current adapters MACaddr field.
d) close registry
2) Set value of ChangeMAC (DWord) to 1
3) Set value of NewMAC (string) to the new mac address
4) Invoke a NDIS_REBIND_ADAPTER (this internally will call
QueryMiniport ) and inturn execute step (1)
5) Set value of ChangeMAC (DWord) to 0
Once again thanks Chris and Paul.

@Setok: Thanks for your research. I will pray for method to work
@5n0rk: Thanks to copy paste the article right-here. not spending lot of traffic
@vijay555: Are you able to release the steps described above in C++ or C# like it is explained?
How I understand from all that thread.. first we should change original drivers to a specific one which looks for macAddress in registry. And then to change the MAC in registry.. or with a program.

I have an 8525 that has a wiped eeprom, could I use this method to fix it?

If you are the manager for the Wireless AP's, would it not just be easier to add the MAC address of your device to the allowed list?

Activesync 4.1 isn't saving the "https://" in serv

I am having a very strange problem on my Cingular 8125 with the original ROM and WM5. The same problem appears on my colleagues Ipaq PDA which he recently upgraded to WM5. The IT Manager's Ipaq PDA doesn't show this problem. Here is my problem...
In the Server Configuration under Activesync, we have to put in the string
https:// and after doing that Activesync connects to the Exchange 2003 server and downloads all my emails correctly. I disconnect the USB cable from my laptop or if I put my phone to standby and then reconnect, I see that the https:// string is missing from the server name though the rest of the name is still there. Our config requires SSL and use RPC over HTTP (whatever that means).
Any suggestions?
you don't need to enter in the https:// part because if you check the box in AS for "This server requires an ecrypted (SSL) connection" it will automatically assume https://
(Open active sync---menu---configure server) - On PDA
(Open active sync---Tools Config Server Source) - On desktop

What you are saying makes sense. However, the problem we started with was - keeping the setting without the https://, I tested the following scenarios:
1. Connect via wifi to work network: Activesync works and gets the emails from OWA server.
2. Connect via wifi at home: Activesync fails giving the 80072f0d error which says "The security certificate in the server is invalid. Contact your Exchange Server administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server.".
3. Connect via USB or IR or Bluetooth to the laptop which is connected to the work network (wired LAN): I get exactly the same error.
To resolve this, IT suggested to put the https:// prefix in front of the server name and we found that it works. But, then we got the new problem as it doesn't save the prefix (which I think it shouldn't as SSL is checked). The question is - why including that helps? Also, why does it allow the IT Manager's Ipaq to save the prefix? We compared and he has the same build of WM5 on his Ipaq.
Thanks for the all ths suggestions.
You should install the certificate on the device. The SSL certificate that is.....
go to the site where your exchange owa then export the certificate....
transfer the certificate to your pda
install the certificate to your pda
now you should be straightened out.....
Importing certificate didn't work
I imported the Verisign certificate into my phone, but I still get the same error. See the image below showing that the certicate has been installed correctly:

terminal Server Port number

Hi,
Is there any way to use the terminal server client to use different port numbers. I have terminal servers that use non standard as well as default ports, we change to get though firewalls ect. I know you can change the default listener port, is there anyway to enter the port number from the TS interface, in the windows world I would just enter servername:2323 and it would use port 2323.. Any ideas?
With the WM6 version of Remote Desktop you can enter the URL/IP Address followed by a colon and then the port number, but not in WM5.
You could try and install the WM6 version that's attached, although I haven't tried it on WM5. (DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK, ETC)
What you can do with the WM5 version of RDP is
1. Copy and paste the default RDP Shortcut on the PPC and rename it with any name describing the server you want to connect to.
2. Run the new RDP shortcut and then use the Running Programs tab in the Start > Settings > System tab > Memory app to actually stop RDP. (This creates the necessary registry entries.)
3. Edit the following registry key on the PPC.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\<NEW SHORTCUT NAME>]
Add a DWORD value named "Server Port" and enter the new port number
you want to use.
For what it's worth, the WM6 version allows automatic login and is far more responsive.
Terminal Server
Thanks!! The WM6 works great, one note it doesn't replace the old version. Just had to create a shortcut to the new version and it works with no problems.
hey, i´ve got some questions,

i copied the original wptsc.exe and renamed it to exampletsc.exe and started it. i stoped it as you describe and checked the registry for the keys but i can´t find a new folder with the name of the new rdp file... i can only find and edit the default folder.

Help - how to set GPRS authentication type on 61x

Is there a way to set the GPRS authentication on a 61x to PAP and disable CHAP?
I have been unable to connect to a wireless broadband service because it requires PAP but the 61x appears to default to CHAP with no way to change it to PAP. Spent some time this afternoon on the HP instant support, only to be told that they had not included an UI for this in the 600 series and had no intention of putting it back either!
Dont know is it working on our device or not, but test AdvancedNetwork. I extracted it from HTC Iolite rom

Hi Sergiorus,
Thanks for the file. I have copied it to my 612c and run the exe from there. It however gave me a 3-tabbed screen, all blank except for but bullets or drop-down lists (no description against each). Looks like the program cannot find the data containing the text descriptions.
Does the program run on your machine, and are there other files that might be part of the package?
Thanks again for the help,
Alfred
There are two files in zip archive .exe and .mui, copy two files to any folder and run exe. (mui and exe should be in one folder)

Yes that was how I tried - had both files in a folder and ran the exe. The program ran and gave me a 3-tab display but none with any description. It is as if running a program with no fonts. Does the program need other components (e.g. selected fonts) installed first?
Again thanks for the help!
So, you didnt see text like on screenshot ?

Hm..strange. I only copyed this two files, nothing more. Maybe your rom is not english?
Only can suggest to manually change GPRS Authentication Method
[HKLM\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction]
"GPRSAuthenticationMethod"=dword:00000001 PAP
"GPRSAuthenticationMethod"=dword:00000002 CHAP

No, I could see only the buttons and tabs, but not the text (neither text on page nor the tab names). You are right my rom is CHT (traditional chinese) and not English, but I have my regional setting at English (Australian) and it displays English alright.
I will try the registry settings to see if they work.
Thanks,
Alfred
Also you can translate .MUI file to your language. Just find small program ResHacker, open with it .MUI, translate all english words (about 15 words) and save it as AdvancedNetwork.exe.0804.MUI
Finally got around to test the methods suggested, and can report as follows:
(a) manually adding [HKLM\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction] to the registry - doesn't work.
(b) changing the 0409.mui with Reshack to use chinese language (1028) - still cannot see text when firing up AdvancedNetwork.exe, whether mui is named 0804.mui or 0404.mui.
(c) found a seeting in [HKLM\MUI] which is defaulting to 1028 (chinese). Change it to 1033, soft reset the machine, and AdvancedNetwork.exe (unmodified) now shows all text - hurray! Used AdvancedNetwork to set authentication to CHAP then back to PAP, then fire up IE - still would NOT connect, with same packet error message!
Looks like the program AdvancedNetworks.exe does not work on the 612c, and have to continue looking for a solution...
Maybe solution is not here. Why you think that problem is in GPRSAuthenticationMethod?

I am only guessing, based on two things:
(a) I can connect using my wife's HP6515, which has an utility to set the authentication method and actually defaults to PAP. I haven't worked out which file is the program and what registry entries it changes though.
(b) I have read in Whirlpool forums that VirginBroadband requires PAP and PAP only, and that using CHAP would give similar error messages (packet error) as I am getting.
(c) There were 614c users in the HP forum last year who had similar problems logging into their company networks, again same error, and they nailed the problem down to PAP. As that discussion occurred a long time ago, none of the participants appear to read the thread again and I cannot find out from them how they ended up fixing it.
(d) HP instant support admitted that the 612c would use CHAP but HP were not going to help to provide a tool to set it to PAP.
Not sure what else I could do!
No ideas... I can suggest to extract utility from HP6515, it should be in Windows directory. I dont think this utility is device dependent, so you can try this variant.

Remote Desktop Connection from PDA (hTC Touch Diamond) to linux (ubuntu)

Hi all! This is a thread for the linux lovers aut there...
I have a hTC Touch Diamond with WinMo 6.1 and I want to remotely connect it to my ubuntu desktop.
DETAILS:
-my ubuntu connects to the internet through a (MSI) router that has a PPPoE connection
-I set up the Remote Desktop in ubuntu and got something like "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network. Others can access your computer using the address 192.168.x.xxx , x.local."
-Then I noticed that "192.168.1.100" was a link to "vnc://192.168.x.xxx::5000"
-Also the "x.local" was a link to "vnc://x.local::5000"
-I already have a VNC client for PocketPC (link below) but don't know how to use it...
-my PDA connects to the internet through a (orange)3G-connection
- oh...and yes...I'd like to remote connect NOT only from the local network!
If someone already got this kind of connection working, please,please share.
Thanks!
over&out
yes you need the client on the pda and the vnc server on your linux box
if you want to be able to use it over the internet thats just a setup thing for your lan network vnc works the same no matter what the client is running on
pda, another pc a mac you name it
suggest you read up on how you setup the vnc server and client
and get it to work on your lan and then move on getting all the ports opened and or directed so your router don't block it and it should work over the internet without an probs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing good place to start reading
First of all, you must forward ports (5900 and 0) on your router.
Later in system preferences you'll wind remote desktop settings

}
Setup your password, reboot the router and voila!
In VNCViewer for ppc type your ip : no 192. or 10. but the one you can find ex. here :
http://www.ip-adress.com/
So, your IP::5900 and below type your password, click connect and wait for your ubuntu desktop appear.
DONE! this is how I did it
ok! After some searching/learning/trying I finally got it working. Here is how you do it:
NOTES:
- PDA: hTC Touch Diamond with custom ROM (DiaDuit)
- PC: LinuxMint 8 (based on ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala)
- internet connection (PC): through a MSI wireless router
- internet connection (PDA): orange 3G (my provider)
1. get the VNC Client (for PDA) from below this post (vncviewer).
2. set your linux box:
- press ALT+F2 to open the "Run App" dialog
- enter "gconftool -u /desktop/gnome/remote_access/network_interface" and hit RUN
(if you don't have a karmic based linux see this for help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers)
- configure the Vino application (this is the default VNC server in ubuntu based distros): http://www.debianadmin.com/remote-desktop-sharing-in-ubuntu.html
3. configure your router (if you have one): just forward the ports 5800 and 5900 for your local IP (mine is 192.168.1.100). You can use other ports; just have to change these default ones in vncviewer and ofcourse to forward them properly.
4. find your external IP (http://www.ip-adress.com/) and enter it in the vncviewer. Type your password. Hit ENTER!
5. scare your girlfriend and make her think the computer is possessed. (Well...in fact it is ! )
Feel free to ask me about anything I failed to explain.

WIFI problem for WM 6.5 (FIXED)

This is a fix for people who are running WM 6.5 and are having the problem stated below.
Your WIFI automaticly turns off when u put your device into standby and wont reconnect instantly after you have turned it back on. you have to go to comm manager and manually turn it on and off.
this will fix that so when u turn on your device again, it will connect to your network automaticly without you doing anything
First step. Use a mobile registry software and go to the following
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Parms
2) create a string Value "EnableAutoConnect" (without the " )and set it to 1
3) set "allow suspend" from 1 to 0
4) restart your phone and now you should not have anymore problems with the wifi.
Hope this helps all of you and also let me know if you are having any problems
Value Type
Hey
I am not well read on reg editing and i was wondering, while creating the new value what do i set the "value type" drop down menu to.
Cheers mate
the value type should be string
Also i would recommend you to use the mobile registry editor because all you need to do is to have your phone synchronized and edit it from your pc.
Hope this answered your Q's. if you have anymore questions let me know

It's what i am finding. I will try. Thank you, shayan
I didn't have this problem. i really don't know what to do. i checked it again and worked fine. it could be the rom you are using.
It doesn't work for me either, same message.

Dear shayan.k,
I did as you explained but it didnt work and i still have this problem.
Can you plz help ...
Just an FYI..
I'm using a Tilt 2. In fact, I'm configuring about 30 of them. And maybe 1/4 of them had this problem. It seems to be completely random. I havne't figured out how to fix it. All my phones seem to be exactly the same. I did have some different hardware revisions, but they didn't line up with the problem. I contacted HTC, they said they don't support registry changes.
WTF?
this isnt working for me...although im not sure im creating the string properly...
NOT
"DWORD" ? right? a string? and then just pop a 1 in there?
could u maybe make a screenshot of your 2 strings? so i know what it should look like?
sorry to all the people here.i have been really busy and haven't been checking my posts. this is for WM 6.5 with sense 2.1 that wont connect automatically. now that we have Wm 6.5 with sense 2.5. this hack is no longer needed.
+ Aman's sense 2.5 is faster than 99% of all the other Roms out there, especially the prime 3. if u can i would recommend u to try that if u have Hspl installed.
Sorry for this
