similar to a windows computer where you can just change the computer name..
thanks for any thoughts!

Then where the mac is found address? in the driver? I have tried to look for the file dll that in the register you/he/she is quoted under the name of TIACXWLN.dll but I have not found him.
Doesn't a program that allows to change the mac address exist? on windows xp can be made both with the register and with various programs, under linux it is simple even more.
Possible that a program doesn't exist for windows mobile? A way there will be
i think u can under network adaptor settings in the network cards on wm5.
Why would you need to change it ?
unless ur upto somthing dodgy lol
in the settings of the network any voice doesn't exist for changing the mac address (as it was logical!)

What you speak of already works and I use it from time-to-time.
First, create an Ad-Hoc (not Infrastructure) Wireless Network with some SSID and Encryption assigned on the PC.
Then on the Universal, add the same Ad-Hoc Wireless Network as you have set on the PC.
You can connect to shared drives on your network with the standard File Explorer.
When you have File Explorer running then from Menu select "Open path" and then "New Path". Then type in the path to your network drive and you should get connected. If you have some form of security, you might need to fill in a login form.

As far as I'm aware you cannot change a physical MAC address as it is hardwired into the network interface card, therefore, the only way you could change it is by swapping out the main board.
Why would you want to change it?
You can't change it it's embedded into the wireless hardware, why would you want to?
I found this program Macshift for XP http://devices.natetrue.com/macshift/.
Maybe someone can change it to work on wm.
but the same question exists...why do you want to change your MAC address?
the Mac address is a combination of the manufacturers code and the device serial number. The result being that no two devices anywhere in the world have the same Mac address....should this happen in real life..all sorts of problems can occur with web based communications.
this been asked since the first htc device with wifi was released search
networking forum for info
as far as i know nobody ever managed to do it
also it would be a problem as 2 devices with the same mac address (mac addresses being the only truly unique identifier for 2 network devices could mess up network traffic pretty much)
the other person whos ½ packets you may intercept and his yours giving you both network instablity may feel strongly against you chanting your mac address to the same as his
I'd still like to know why BenBen_ wants to change the MAC address?
Maybe he cracked the wep key of an access point which uses MAC filtering and then analyzed the packets to find out which MAC has access to the AP .. And now he wants to use that MAC.. ( I am just assuming )
Hello,
I've changed my MAC Adress but didn't noticed the old one. And I don't want to re-install Windows Mobile...
How can I find the real Mac adress of my WIFI?
Thanks...
In android you can dial *#*#4636#*#* and select wifi information then wifi status to get your mac address, but I don't know if this is the ' true' or what you modified since I've never played with my mac address.

I have an external HD connected to my home wireless router. The router is a Netgear N600 model: WNDR3400. I can see the HD from all my computers. After some research I installed ES File Explorer on my Nexus 7 trying to get access to the Network Drive. My problem is that after doing a LAN Scan with ES Explorer I can see the IP Address for my router (default 192.168.1.1) but when I click it to get access ES Explorer is asking me for a User Name and Password. I assumed that it should be the router's User and password so I type them in but I receive a Login Failure again that says "Try new user name/password?" I ckick OK and enter the router info again but I can't access the drive.
I can access my laptop from the Nexus 7 using ES Explorer but not the Network Drive connected to the Router.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Well, there's potentially a bunch of different SMB authentication schemes that are possible; but what auth method does the router docs say it supports? I would think that you would have set this up when you configured the router initially.
I sort of doubt that it is set up to work with a domain controller, so some things to try are:
- use the workgroup name (same one the laptop uses) in the domain field in the ES add server dialog
- use the laptop user/pw pair?
- leave the user/pw pair blank and select the "anonymous" toggle?
Also, from the laptop, get the IP address of the router and run (from the command line)
nbtstat -A IP_address_of_router
at a minimum that should provide workgroup info

Thank you bftb0 for your response,
regarding your 3 points:
1. I'm not completely sure how or where to find the name of my workgroup. If you can send me some more detailed steps on where to find this information, that would be grate. My laptop is running Windows 7
2. Doesn't make any sense to me. I'm trying to connect my nexus 7 to a network drive that is connected to my wireless router not to my laptop. I had no problem connecting the Nexus 7 to my laptop with ES Explorer
3.I did this one but didn't worked.
Regarding your last command I run it on my laptop and I get a table but unfortunately I'm not sure if I can understand correctly the information on that table.
I don't know if this will help but I installed a similar app (filebrowser) on an ipad and I can access the network drive with no problem using the same username/pw combination that I'm using on my Nexus 7. So I believe that the router and the network drive is configured correctly.
can you view your HD from your laptop? if so, what is the un/pw combo you used there?
Well that table is "the remote machine's name table". In this case, remote machine = your router.
Kinda was hoping you were going to cut-n-paste the table. Unlikely it contains anything private.
By default (if you don't alter it) Windows PCs that are not part of a domain have a default workgroup name of "WORKGROUP". So I suppose if I was going to ship a router to a Windows customer (90% of the world?) that might also be the default SMB workgroup name for the router too.
On the PC, the workgroup is listed by right-clicking on My Computer -> Properties.
As I said, there are a number of different ways that authentication can occur with Windows (SMB) server shares. For home products though, I would expect the simplest of them in which case a workgroup name might not even be needed.
It is possible that ES File Manager is simply incompatible. But you might want to crack open the user manual for your router and see what knobs are available for you to turn.
good luck
haha123,
Yes I can see my HD from any of my computers and also from an ipad running an app called filebrowser.
I already used the User/PW combination that I use for all my compters and the ipad because that's the combination for the router that has the HD connected. The only devices that are not working are my Nexus 7 tablet and my Galaxy S3 phone. So I think the problem could be compatibility between Android and the router login.
How can I know if the router has a Samba Server running? If this question make any sense because I'm not too literate in this network world.

After I wrote you, I fond out that the workgroup on my devices as you told me is "WORKGROUP" I try with that but didn't work. The table also show "READYSHARE" as one of the names so I try it also but with the same result.
Thanks to both anyhow
I'm still trying to find out what is happening.

I've found that X-Plore works much better than ES. Username and password should be the same as what you enter to get into the configuration settings of the router. You've all over-complicated things asking for workgroup info and such. The source of the media, the hard drive, isn't plugged into a computer, therefore worrying about workgroup/domain info is irrelevant. If the username and passwords are not working, then I would suggest trying a different app or looking into the configuration settings in place on the router that may be rejecting the Nexus from authenticating.
I can tell you that I have the same setup (different router though) and have my router set to allow all connections so as long as I'm on the wifi AP, any device including my tablets and phones can access the hard drive.
From a quick Google (youtube has netgear videos) I guess you are using Ready Share. Unless you have changed some defaults then displaying the properties of your external HDD in W7 File explorer should show its address as \\readyshare and that should be used in your Android File manager "set up a network connection" screen to connect to the drive.
There may also be an Android specific error in the software late last year. The last post here http://forum1.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=72917&page=2 claims a solution with ES File Explorer

If the same username/password combo working on other devices isn't working on Nexus 7, then it might be a protocol error (eg: it's not a LAN share, so it's not working in ES)
Same here.
I can't see my Shared folders, all Local Network PCs can access my shared multimedia files but ES File Explorer can't detect any after several Scans.
