[Q] HELP ! TWO HD2's On same network !! NOT WORKING !! - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi, My friend and me flashed and installed Android on our HTC HD2 today, we used the same roms and method.
When we try to connect to the same wireless modem, we keep disconnecting each other. I Think it might have to be something to do with the IP address.
As we used the same Rom and method to install android on our phones, maybe we have the same IP?
Any help is appreciated.

i heard flashing a different radio to just one of them fixes this issue

I had the same issue, add the following in the startup.txt on one of the phones
set cmdline "wifi.mac=00:12:23:34:45:56"

Thank you so much. testing this right now,
Just for future notice, its
"wifi.mac_address=00:12:23:34:45:56"
didnt work without "Address" in the command line

How should this fix it when all builds have the same MAC?
Take at look at yours, mine is 00:11:22:33:44:55 and I'm sure yours is the same.

You both got the same mac.address...the kernel is designed to have a single mac address. I also got two hd2 and fixed it with the edit to startup.txt...

I am having another issue with the Wifi, and this seemed to solve it for 10 seconds.
The problem is, that i can connect to the Wifi router at work, though i don't have any working internet connection.
When i changed the mac address in the startup.txt it worked for 10 seconds, and after that it failed miserably again.
I've read about this issue before, though i can't find anything about it anymore. Does that also has something to do with the mac address? Wifi works fine everywhere else, but here.
With WinMO or a very old android rom and kernels it works fine.
Tested with MDJ ROMs, Cyanogen ones, all have the same issue.
Anybody?

But what does the MAC have to do with a radio?
And this is clearly a problem with his MAC.

The latest kernels from hastarin and mdj solve this problem with the MAC address using the same startup trick. For best results, update your kernel to the latest but READ CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY. If you don't follow the instructions (such as putting the 'root' folder in your actual root folder), your WiFi will not work.

It depends on the rom. Earlier kernels needs the address while newer ones don't.

already posted the question before but don't know why disappear, and already search some threads and tried there advise but can't work so try set a new thread
btw, thanks all guys for your reply, if you don't want reply just ignore my thread, thank you again.
before the thread gets closed..
solution is use the RMNET ALTERNATIVE (download in mattc thread and inside zip will be rootfs.img to replace the usual one)
I found the solution to be manually editing the APNs in "Settings->Connectivitiy->Mobile Network->APN" and not only selecting my SIM'S APN (the default was some english carrier), but also changing it's type (under 'Settings->APN Type') to "default" (have to type it in manually).
Fixed the problem for me.

I'm using Mattc's EvoLeo 1.0 and it has a different mac address than the other android builds. It's not the real mac id, but at least it'll get the two of you connected. It's quite a nice build for me.
i believe that the desire hd rom has this fixed as my mac address isnt 00.11.22...

I need to change my mac adress too.. I can't login on my company network because sb else is using same mac adress :s
A lot of recent kernels contain a fix that allows you to set your wifi mac address using the cmdline parameters in startup.txt.
Which build/kernel are you using? You might want to check if that works.
you can try this
set cmdline "bt.mac=00:11:22:33:44:55 wifi.mac=00:12:23:34:45:56"
change your bt address to whatever it is and same for wifi.
Thanks! Works perfect

Just edit your startup.txt like what asaHD2 explained.
Make sure you have hastarin kerne r8 and beyond that. If before that you should use another command line.

it depends on the build you have, is it NAND or SD? SD builds have the file startup.txt, and for some of them the method mentioned earlier works, for some it does not. Some hints for NAND builds, which could also works for SD ones are here, maybe sth more in one of those threads
I need to change my mac adress too, got 2 HD2 on same network / BT in car .
Im using "BOYPPC - GINGER CM7 HoneyComB"

[Q] Identify real MAC Address in NAND

Hi I installed MAGLDR and running MDJ's NAND rom
so is there any way to identify the real MAC Address of BT and Wifi
I kno installing WinMob roms will show the real MAC addresses but other than that is it possible to identify them with MAGLDR and NAND roms
Hopefully you have a router, you can dig out your MAC address out of it.

This kernel brings some improvements to the original, one of these is original WiFi MAC address

ifconfig is not working in android terminal
Hmm, do you have busybox installed?
i hv terminal installed and rooted
btw if with busybox we can detect da MAC correctly why cant android display the original one
Known issue, and it's been said it should be fixed eventually, just gotta have patience.
Unique is at least better than the previous all-builds-have-same-MAC.

Hmm, okay can you tether or access other wifi networks? It appears to be working on your phone, considering its showing the network and attempting to connect, might be something with the router and your phone specifically. Try flashing another ROM and testing that out too.
EDIT: Are you 100% certain you are entering the correct password for your security? Youd be surprised how many times people (including myself) have entered the wrong password

a2sd shouldnt matter nor should clk or magldr, as wifi is the same setup for both. But good thoughts! Gives people something to brainstorm about!
