Is it possible to change MAC addresses in WM5/6 driven devices?
I'm using a HTC S710 (Vox) smartphone and would like to change the Wlan MAC.

not sure about wm6 though
Yeah, I already googled for it but to no avail.
I searched the registry, but didn't find the wlan mac.
Will dump the rom firmware now and see if they are there.
Assuming the MACs are there, can I reflash?

Hello to all,
Currently McDonalds provided a free wifi for 20mins for each device
Is it possible to change my MAC ADDRRESS of my PPC to enjoy other 20mins?
and I'd search for some old post...
is that the MAC stored in the wifi chip's and there's nothing to do with the registry,
The only possible way is to change the original drivers ?
thankyou
PS. My Hermes is running WM5
There is some discussion regarding changing the MAC address of the Hermes using a custom mode controller for the TIACXWLN driver. Check out this thread here.
Since I haven't found the time to try downgrading to WM5 to test the older driver out, would you be so kind as to help test a theory of mine by installing the custom mode controller to you device to see if you can set a custom MAC address and/or set promiscuous mode? The file can be downloaded for free and is located at the bottom of AlexB's website found here.
Once you download and install the .cab, the program can be found in
"/program files/custom controller/tiacxwln_ctrl.exe"
Enable WIFI in your com manager and execute this program. Let us know if you can successfully set your MAC address or enable promiscuous mode.
Cheers and good luck

Hi,
Where I work I've access to the WLAN with my LPT. The WLAN is configured with MAC address access list.
Is it possible to change the MAC Address of my P3600 to access the WLAN?
Thanks

No absolutely not possible. You should let your mac adress added to the network.
hello, i don't see the MAC address in settings and the wi-fi doesn't turn on now.
What can i do?????
Help!
and, as i enter in bootloader, after USB i read in Red: WLAN ERROR.
what can i do??
Even if it were possible to change the MAC address, which can be done for your laptop, your employer obviously has a reason for not having the WiFi open to all who have the WEP/WPA key and circumventing this may well not be looked on favourably. Best suggestion is to register your PDA with the IT department so it works without hacking anything
yah
I do agree with deedee
Did someone find the solution to restore WLAN EEPROM?

I have almost the same problem...
I have flashed WM6.5 ROM, then decided to return to native WM5.0 ROM. In bootloader there was the same error.

But my device was flashed successfully. After that Wi-Fi was dead
Reflashing does not help... Wi-Fi is as cold as a key
Is it possible to change WLAN MAC on Atom Exec via some registry\file hack or by changing it in the dumped ROM?
I saw a tutorial here for doing it on some other device by modifiing it in the dumped ROM, but I can't find it in the ROM using WinHex (I tried both bytes order). So maybe it doesn't work...
P.S.: I need this because I have another PPC (LOOX 720). And I have registered it's MAC in the university network, but want o use the net from both devices (not simultaneouly).
My MAC address must have been messed up when I used ppckitchen buildOS
I no longer see a MAC address.
this is not a HERMES, so don't bother me with that thread.
anybody know how to reprogram my MAC ADDRESS ?
trust me, I read many threads, searched hard.
will a Verizon reset to stock rom fix this?
It occurred to me that there must be some kind of really easy solution to the problem of cracking a windows phone and applying Android and ending up with the WiFi MAC Address conflict issues...
I have 00:90:4c:c5:00:34, but my "real" MAC address ends in :38...
My guess is, there is a string in some bit of code, somewhere, a config file or a boot file, or some hardware file that has this MAC address in it.
Wouldn't it be easy to just go into that line in the code or config files and change it?
Or am I making this too simple?
Is this some kind of default address handed out when a program fails to find a proper MAC Address (nand not working, etc)?
I have searched all day for a solution, and tried 3 or 4 that I found without success.
So my questions are:
1) If this "default" MAC Address (00:34) is in a config or other file, what file would that be?
or
2) is there a simple way to change the MAC Address some other way, so I can get all 3 of these devices on the same network?
I have Android 2.2, Kernel 2.6.32.15r8.4-gb02a70d (hastarin... #66), Build 2.29.405.2 CL263770, Software Sergio Core Droid Desire V0.8...
On an HTC HD2.
(maybe there is a better distribution that gives me this same kind of look and feel that might work better for this problem?)
Thanks in advance for your consideration and help.
