How to exchange the mac address - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I have a question about the mac address of nexus 7
I can check the current mac address in my setting. but I don't know how to change it.
Your cooperation will be appreciated. Thank you.

last time I checked MAC addresses were part of the hardware, unless you root your device and use a driver for the card that allows for MAC spoofing, also I have no idea why you would legitimately want this, aside from network penetration testing.

How to change mac adrress of wi-fi card?

Hi! I have a question. Is there an application that gives you the possibility to change the mac adrress on wm6?? I'm using lg ks-20 and need to make changes in my mac adrress due to connect to my wi-fi internet in house...
For any help big thanks
Why would you need to change it to connect. I ask because it's hard/impossible to change the MAC. The MAC is hardcoded into the card. If you absolutely need to change the MAC addy you could try spoofing, but that's something I don't a lot about. Post your situation, and maybe we can help you out.

There are programs that change the mac adrress of wi-fi card. I need to do that because every mac adrress that connects to the server is saved. I meen that those cards that have the mac that is written in the server will connect but those that aren't in the database of the server will be rejected... I have a internet connection only form my pc internet card mac adrress. Now i want to chcange that adrress to be the same as in pc so i can connct to the internet via lg ks-20.
I hope that you understand what i am asking about...

change wifi mac address?

Hello.
Is there a way to change the mac address of the wifi network interface of the titan?
I would like to be able to do that so I can use my titan's browser to authenticate to web portals, and then use my wifi voip phone (with the same mac address) to make calls.
Do you mean MAC address or IP address?
The MAC is a hardcoded address of the form xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx, using hex. MAC addresses cannot be changed as each interface has a unique number. The MAC address can be spoofed to match another interface, this is usually an available feature on routers to spoof to the ISP that you are not sharing a connection on your home network.
The IP address can be changed and is of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx using only numbers. The WIFI interface on the titan will be set up for DHCP, ie it requests an address from the wireless source it is connected to. This can be changed to give the IP address required if DHCP is not availabe on the network selected.
I am talking about changing/spoofing the mac address if the network wifi card.
There are a bunch of utilities out there that are able to do so on the fly for windows XP, maybe someone has one for windows mobile?
Or a registry key location that does that?

Hi Drew,
I appreciate your reply, however, could you be a little more specific? reflash to rom meaning the Verizon Stock rom?

How to change the mac address on the xperia

Ok, so my situation is that I go to a college where the wifi is only accessible by those who have their mac address entered into the system. Trouble is that they only allow laptops to do this and not pdas. So i would like to know if anyone has a way of letting me spoof the mac address of my laptop to the phone. Thanks. I've searched everywhere and can't find a thing. I tried some registry changes, but apparently they dont work..

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 )

[Q] MAC Address Varies everytime reboot the device

I found that the MAC address changes everytime I reboot my HD2 WP7.
I set my wifi router with MAC address access list, so I have to get rid of the access list fuction and got a not very safe wifi enviornment.
Is there any possibility that have the same MAC Address in next HD2 WP7 verison?
Brand new forum organization, and still same old crap posted in the dev section.
Go to Q&A!!
I saw this too.
The MAC Addresses are:
00:18:41:xx:xx:xx
Is it possible to set permanent MAC address?
