mac adress htc desire

just opened my desire...
but i have a mac adress protection for my wireless, but i cant find it.
i have to put the mac adress number into my router..
thanx in advance

settings->about phone->hardware information

Settings>About phone - it's in there somewhere

Is it possible to change Mac address manually?
If it is possible, is it difficult?
Thanks for an answer.
P.S. My phone is rooted.

MAC addresses are suppose to be unique to the networking device - so you shouldnt be able to change them in theory
its a bit like a serial number...

Never tried it myself, but found this.

if they can be change don PC,why not on android device.i guess my wifi mac address has been blocked at few wifi zones.i would like to change it temporary i.e originial mac address gets restored on restart so that i can use it with the desired wifi service which has blocked me

Go into settings then About phone then Status and it should be there

So have you filtered your router so only some devices can be connected?

Desire can't see ad-hoc wifi network!

I've just set up an ad-hoc wifi network using my laptop, but it seems that desire can't see it. My other laptop, and ipod touch are connecting just fine.
Is there any way to fix this??

Yes, wait for the Froyo update.
I 'm waiting for this to use my KS20 as a hot-spot

I have froyo rom installed...it should work...i guess ...

AFAIK no Android device can see an ad-hoc network. (not without modifications / root that is). I admit I have no idea if Froyo solves this problem.

Can u post any links with instructions? I would really like to make this work, hehe . I've also tried Connectify, and Desire can connect, but there's no internet access (maybe I did something wrong)...

You _did_ something wrong, because Connectify is the way I successfully connect my Desire to internet.

Have a look at:

Hm...don't know. There's nothing to do wrong . It's very easy to configure. I've tried it on two laptops. Desire is just hanging on obtaining ip adress, and another laptop conects just fine but with no internet access...

Your windows firewall is blocking the connection process. Either turn off the firewall or set a exception, if you have a complete antivirus solution with firewall its the same thing.
Also go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections (on win 7) > right click on your internet connection > Proprieties > Sharing > Check the "Allow other network users to connect through this computers intenet connection" > in the drop down list select the Wirless Network Connection made by Connectify

No desire does not see ad hoc connections, i think some people on here are not understanding what the OP means.
He wants to share his interner from laptop to desire so the desire can go online.
I have tired this with a nokia phone in ad hoc mode (n900) and desire would not see SSID.
Not sure if froyo will, i had froyo installed but didnt test that.

Android does not see ad-hoc networks by default, but it can be configured that way.
I did it with this guide: hxxp://modmymobile.com/forums/491-jailbreak-root-access/544146-connect-g1-ad-hoc-network-solved.html (replace xx with tt) wich is similar as the above mentioned.
I had some problems with the wpa_supplicant.conf file, but this is how it looks now:
Code:
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
update_config=1
network={
ssid="MarcsAndroid"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
}
network={
ssid="Marcsnet"
scan_ssid=1
psk="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
group=CCMP TKIP
priority=1
}
I'm using wifi thethering on my Desire and have configured my old G1 so that is sees the Desire, can connect to it, and share its internet. But most importantly, I use the app WiFi-keyboard, so I can use my G1 qwerty on my Desire

why is it illegal? my router clones my PCs mac address. is that illegal?
ip link (lists the current interfaces)
then
ifconfig blahblah0 down
ifconfig blahblah0 hw ether 00:11:A2:B3:C4:5D
ifconfig blahblah0 up
This works on a regular linux machine. I'm not sure if it works on a android. if it doesn't, a reboot reverts the changes.

It sppofs my MAC but I can´t log in my router with my spoofed MAC. My MAC-Address is existing (It´s the one of my HTC Desire 500), and my Desire 500 is turned off... Where is the mistake?

Can you check the output or log of your router? It may yeild some useful information to be honest I have never tried to spoof a Mac address so if the log is no use I would suggest posting in the spoofing thread for more experienced help
