Hi guys,
Our college wi-fi has blocked Android, iPhone and Windows Phone users from connecting to the network. Laptops are able to connect fine. Upon noticing how they block devices, it turns out that they block the mac addresses, and they keep doing so even after changing mac address. Changing MAC address on a blocked laptop works, on mobiles, it doesn't.
What I understand is that the routers are blocking all mobile devices directly, is there any way I can change my android device to appear as a laptop? From all I've tried searching and understanding, with UPnP connections, this data about the device is trasmitted?
I would be very glad if anyone can help me out with this. Just for information, my mobile is a rooted Galaxy S Advance (i9070), and the routers are the Aruba 105s.
probably they identify devices by another method and not by mac.
write in google: "How knowing the device, carrier and connection" and you'll find the answers.
Mine problem is also the same but am using Windows phone.
So please suggest me something.
actually , in my university students with android phone are using psiphon app which bypass the browser login page (24online client) , when the university admins got to know this, they blocked android phones from connecting to router , later they blocked the software connecting to our ssid but they didnt blocked windows pc because our professors take attendance on their laptops , they need to connect inside online server to mark attendance and the windows mobiles are also connecting to router
my phone is moto g2 rooted , i tried changing the device name ,modified the p2p_suppli and wpa_suppli file in system\etc\wifi . but nothing worked , is there anyway for android mobiles to appear as windows pc , so that it will connect to router
please help
thanking in advance
Hack is the solution.

changing the host doest work. need to detect packet header info just sniff a single packet using wire shark and detect what info is travelling.
If any one want to work can mail me.

ICMP blocking
hello guys
As I came to know that there firewall is blocking the ICMP pinging request to the server that is handling the local request. so if some how we can mask the local IP and tunnel the network then we can easily use the internet without any rules applied with full bamdwidth .
You can mail me if any one wants to work on it.

I have an old laptop which is not having any wifi hardware..and I can connect to internet using my wm6.5 on elf... so I was thinking like can I share wifi internet from my mobile to laptop using usb? I know there is an option of internet sharing but that uses my dataplan and that I don't want to use. does someone know how to do this?
You mean using your phone as a wireless card?
You can Check out http://www.wmwifirouter.com/, but im not too sure whether this is the right one you are talking about.
This is one of the company which does this for really long time, and they have a thread in the XDA community.
Yes exactly... i have wifi router at my home using that i browse net over my elf. now i want to use my phone as a wireless card so that my laptop also connects to the net through the wifi router...
and wmwifirouter is not a freeware and i dont want to use it exactly...
Bingo.

Thanks for the effort jeremy89632 but i had stumbled upon it earlier but i got stuck while running it. everything is OK but it is not connecting to internet
Oh.
Mmm, Im not too sure than.
Why not you try to use your phone to surf?
ICS Control will do the Job for you, if you configure it correctly
On the Public interface select your Phone Wi-FI card: in my case TNETW1211
On the Private Interface your USB: RNDISFN1
Set the Private IP to what ever option you want
then Start ICS
and connect your phone to the PC, once Active sync is connected. go back to ICS control and go to the DHCP tab and hit refresh you will see the IP that ICS will try to give to your computer.
Then just go to your IP settings on your computer change the IP settings of your Phone conecction to what ever ICS is giving you...
Example if you selected private ip 192.168.2.1 this ip will be your gateway, the ip of the pc will be whatever ICS assined like 192.168.2.57, network mask will be 255.255.255.0 and DNS you can use 4.2.2.2 or the ip of your phone again 192.168.2.1
Hope I didn't make the mess bigger but that's how it works for a fact cause I'm using it righ now.
Good Luck.
Thanks Jeremy89632 and lbrenes... actually i made it to work... ICS was great... lebrenes u are correct, i figured the samething and i m now surfing using my old laptop connected through my HTC....
Thanks for ur efforts...
Cheers!!!
even I have a same problm ..
I have a samsung galaxy s2 .. with jelly bean .. with wifi I want to share it with my PC .. has it doest have wifi .. so please help me ..
Please help, ive had my hd2 for a few days now and have had nothing but problems, might just give it back!
It picks up my home router but simplify wont connect, it just displays a small rotating circle likes it working but nothings happening.
When i remove the settings and retype the key code it keeps saying incorrect code but it isnt,
Anyone any ideas, can i some how reset the wifi settings, its taken me a few days to customize the phone so i dont really want to do a hardwear reset. Ive already a software restset.
Bloody htc!
What protocal are you using on your router? WPA, WEP?
Oh if your using an older Belkin router, I know of about 3-4 models that used to have trouble with WinMo, an update Router flash fixes it though.
Give us some more info on your router etc and Im sure we can help though
Sure your using the right password/key? if it says its wrongs it is probably wrong lol. Maybe try changing it to a more basic password as a test? like "password" and see if it can get connect.

Hi
Calm down. Give some information about your router and the type of security You use.
try these
1. Reset the router once
2. If you use MAc access list on the router then add your device's MAC to the list.
3. If you use N router then in the settings untick N mode protection.
Give more details about the third party software on the hd2 using radios (eg: tomtom, igo,gpstuner like these)
Good luck
HI guys thanks for helping out.
Obvious first - yes the key code is correct i use it on my laptop and iphone.
security mode says WAP-PSK/WPA2-PSK. Its a siemens ive been on the ip server addres and cant see any issues, im on my laptop using the wifi now and its working perfet.
Ive tried everything, changing passwords, settings both on the router and on the phone.
The hd2 is full of really stupid bugs!
Try to hardreset the PPC.
If it won't work, try to update your ROM to the latest available.
If it doesn't want to work, then try to connect to another WiFi without password and see the connection is successful.
If it works with an unprotected WiFi, try to connect to a different router but with protected WiFi.
If it works, then there is a problem with your router and I suggest to update your router's firmware.
funny wifi
the problem wit my hd2 is most of the time it shows wifi connected but i cant surf the internet and sometimes out of the blues it connects to the internet,cant figure out wats happening....
HI kholk, thanks for the help, ill work my way through it and hopefully get it sorted!

Have you found the solution? I can help you my friend i had the same situation
I tried to connect yesterday my hd2 with my router. First it wasnt working aswell. Then i set the next things. Channel 9 (was auto), Encryption AES (was tkip and AES). Network mode is Mixed. Further have you installed Mac Filter? I installed this also. So if i have a connection thats it. I must fill in my macadres from my phone for i get fully connected.
Hi guys thanks all for you help call HTC UK support and their amazing advice was to do a full hard reset!
I really am having a lot of problems with this phone and i cant understand why their have been so many issues?!
Hi guys,
I have the same problem- HD2 shows it is connected, but no access to Internet(other- laptop, SE990 phone is connected and working OK)
For not to write about all, now situation is:
1. On router wrt54g2 temporary disabled wireless security, only mac filtering is on(laptop mac, SE mac, HD2 mac is allowed), router firmware is up to date
2.HD2 is like new after hard reset, no settings is done for connection to home network. HD2 wifi is on, looking for access points and connecting to only one available open network in my area- to my home network and shows it is connected but no access to Internet.
3. In router I can see all connected clients by mac. All 3(lap, SE, HD2) are connected. I use Network Magic software too but it is showing only my laptop and desktop are connected. SE is not connected according NM, but it is working OK.
P.S.
Do not know what else can help you in my problem(maybe some other router setting, but as other devices are connected without problems so maybe it is not important for now)
So only my HD2 can not access WWW
Can You guys help somehow please
I've got a similar problem with an HD2 over here. Wifi does switch on, but it just won't connect to my router. The cirkel that is supposed to show when connecting to a network doesn't show either. I'm using WPA2-AES security, and yes, i did use the proper network key. I haven't tried connecting to other networks/using an alternative encryption method because a lot of other devices will then have to be reconfigured and it's not my own place. My Touch HD and 2 laptop connect to the network without any problems. The only solution I came across until now is doing a hard reset, which I would rather not do... I'm using a stock dutch rom (V1.43). Is it possible that upgrading to the newer 1.48 will solve this problem?
Have you tried removing the wireless security password and trying again? Test to see if maybe you are indeed typing in the password wrong.
Also check your exception list on your router, it might be blocking any other devices coming in.
I have the same problem.. Get the spinning loading circle and thats it.. But if i turn my belkin wires g router running wpa2 off then straight back on again the phone connects fine. But if i then leave my house or disconnect from the network then try and reconnect it wont and have to do the same process again. Luckily im also running a speedtouch 585 modem router which the phone connects fine to.
hey maybe it takes only a WEP key and not WPA as most people have. this is certainly the case as mentioned in the Wifi router article below -
http://www.mobilityminded.com/5438/wi-fi-router-on-htc-hd2-application-overview
Again me
It seems that it is problem with my router. HD2 was able to connect to open wireless a.p. in my town and all sow to my friends router which is using WPA security. So my linksys is not compatible, or i will try some other settings on it, but as other router clients have no problems, i am loosing my hope to have my HD2 connected at home unless i change router. But then another problem- which router will be compatible with all my devices in prise range of 100$
And replying to blackheart2925 my friend is using wpa not wep, i do not know other settings on his router but it is not security problem.
One thing is strange for my HD2 shows it is connected, router shows mac of HD2 among connected clients, but only HD2 do not have access to internet

how are you connected to internet is it router which dials to isp or you have made a broadband dial up on your desk top ...
if you have dial up shortcut on desktop then you can not use internet via hd then change setting in router
better way is hard reset router and then reconnect hopefully it will solve your issue ..........

Router "dials" to my isp and share internet for all connected devices...
Yes, i am going to hard resset my router, but have not much hope i sucsess
PROB:
If your HD2 connects to router but you cannot enter any web site, do this:
SOLUTION:
enter your www router settings - wireless - access control - MAC Address Filtering Table ->>>>> add your HD2 MAC adress
enter your www router settings - firewall - access control ->>>>> add your HD2 MAC adress
so, you have to add your MAC adress of HD2 into router TWO TIMES into TWO PLACES!
I had the same problem and..... solved
Hi, I am trying to use some apps so I can connect to my HD2 through home wifi then use my PC keyboard to send sms etc. But no matter how hard I try it just doesn't work.
The phone says it is on 192.168.1.137 but I just can't connect to it in any way. I've tried EasySMS and now Myphoneexplorer (they are the only ones I can remember at this time)
Using the MDJ CyanogenMod 7 v2.6. connecting it it from a Windows 7 x64 machine.
Any help?
I have the same issue. So anybody can help ?
are you making sure you are putting the port number after the ip address? so it is : http://192.168.1.137:2511
Yes, tried both ways, with MyPhoneExplorer it even uses an app on my phone and the app on the pc to do it automatically but still doesn't work. I just want to be able to SMS with my keyboard!!
i installed that app this morning and it worked first time without any issues, are you sure there isnt something being blocked on the router end?
Or perhaps you have a firewall in place on your pc?
disabling firewall doesn't help.
What could be blocking it on the router? I'm not exactly a router expert, but I'm pretty sure it shouldn't be blocking anything internally, only stuff coming from the outside in?
Sorry for Double post, I just really want to get this sorted. But I had a look at my router and there doesn't seem to be any blocks in place. Is there anything I should be looking out for?
can you ping the phone? from the PC, in a dos window, type ping and then the ip address of the phone.
what is the result?
also try it from the phone to the PC (use the PC address, and you can use a terminal app to try).
mm0
I cannot ping my phone via network, so I cannot connect with any share-app also.
What's the problem ?

you need a wlantest.apk of FW you are using
Have you ever used this network with another device before? And worked it? This may be that problem.. WiFi may be protected by MAC filter. Lets say if it IS protected with this filter, you have to configure your WiFi router and add MAC adress of your phone into it. If it isn't, try another ROM or try to do something with your router.
dont have any idea about MC filter but other phones (nokia 5800,95) & also samsung wave of worth Rs.7500/- is also working with it ,my lapy is also works with it plz guys help me............. http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/mad.gif

this is a problem with the way your router gives ip to device
go in your router settings and reset all
then imput a new pass key
then it will work
i had problem with my ps3 haveing the same ip as my phone so when boath where online my phone no work online
a simple router reset to default and a new pass key fixed all problems
hey its my college wifi i can't edit it... is their some other way??????
If it is with what the craigboro guy said, you could use a laptop or another android device to scan the network (check the market, net scan or something) to scan the IP addresses on the network and then in advanced settings give your phone an IP that isn't being used, not ideal but hey, you're asking in the G3 section, not the g5 section, so you are bound to get general answers
Hi guys
I just got my 6p 2 days ago and it's still without rooting or even a 3rd app and I have a really Sirius problem some websites doesn't open when I'm on my home WiFi but it's open without problems on mobile network .. on the other side my mate 7 open them over same network!
Please help me with that it's drive me crazy
Which sites? Do they open with a browser refresh?
no bro .. Simply I do Google search when I hit a link for some sites it doesn't open put its open over 3g or my mate 7 hotspots but not my WiFi at same time when I use my mate7 over the same WiFi it's open
I suppose it depends on the sites! Sounds like your router is blocking your phone from accessing the web. Did you sign in via the pin/password or use WPS? Some routers use a limited guest account for WPS.
I don't think it's caused by the router other ways how the other Mobile works with same router
I use simple password for my router 223456789 that's it
We have 6 devices over the same network all works good but not my Nexus 6p
Of course it could be the router. Each device uses a different IP address and has a unique Mac address. Each device can be given different permissions based on Mac address and/or login type.
Have you looked at your router settings? Have you tried forgetting the network and then signing in again? You need to try different things to remove possibilities.
First of all .. Thank you very much for your time and help
Yes bro I try everything .. Forgetting the network and restarting both the Mobile and router and my settings on the router it's the standard I believe no limitation settings has been done only the wifi key which I mentioned before
I can open Amazon phone arena .... etc
But I can't open some other sites
Do you think The DNS hase something to do such things opening some site and not opening some other I couldn't find the DNS settings in the Nexus even under developers options
