[Q] Wifi conection stuck at same ip address

I am on a business and have been staying at various hotels. The hotel I am currently at I have stayed at several times but this is the first time I am having issues connecting to the internet. I have talked with their IT department and what we can not figure out is when my phone connects to their wifi it is assigned XXX.XXX.XXX.XX IP address but the phone says it is using 172.17.3.3. It was stuck at 172.17.3.3 last week and still will assign that address this week. Because of this the browser is unable to redirect me to the hotel wifi login screen. Yesterday the same issue has started on my Kindle Fire 172.17.3.104.
I am running anybones 5.10.605.9 and i guess my question is is there any way to force the phone to change or forget an ip address 172.17.3.3? They can see my phone on the network it is just that that IP address 172.17.3.3 is not the address that the network is assigning.

I have a question about wifi

My phone keeps changing mac addresses. Is this normal? And does the mac address changer with every rom I load? I thought mac addresses were phone specific, and not rom specific. As in your phone has a mac address and that it didn't change. Thanks

It should not change, not sure what's going on there.

Wifi w/ Gederom

I rooted my Kindle Fire and installed Gederom. While setting everything up it asked for me to connect to a network. Didn't work, so I thought no big deal and continued setting it up. I then tried Wifi again but it just won't work. This is what it does: Obtaining IP address ----> Saved ------> Obtaining IP address -----> Saved -----> Etc. My Wifi has been screwed up lately BUT I have gotten it to work on my iPod Touch, but even that works on and off. I might try going to my Local Library tomorrow if need be.
Any help to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

I think that may be your WiFi, gederom worked fine for me. If all else fails try and reflash after a wipe, tends to fix ,most problems out there.

Wifi MAC Address changed when I tried EternityProject's CM10

Hi.
I recently tried EternityProject's CM10 v0.03 and v0.04 and had some problems to connect to my wifi access point. After some investigation I noticed that the mac address of my HOXs wifi adapter had changed. And since I use a network mac address filter the phone was not allowed to connect. Adding the new mac address to the filter in the AP and I was able to connect.
Is this common, or even considered a problem? It has never happened to me before when trying a custom rom, not on the hox and not on my htc desire either. Could someone shed some light on this for me
best regards
Danne

[Q] MAC Address Spoofing Won't Work, Have Tried Multiple Methods

Recently I got my hands on an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3. I just flashed Pacman rom and I have busybox installed. I've looked around XDA and other sites for help with this and all solutions haven't worked for me.
I am attempting to change my MAC address in order to join a network that uses MAC address filtering. If it helps, the network uses an Apple Airport Extreme to allow/disallow connections based on MAC address. I've tried Mac Address Ghost, Mac Spoof, Smile Jobs (I'm aware this is just an older version of Mac Address Ghost), and simply typing busybox commands in the terminal emulator. The phone is of course rooted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can supply any screenshots or other information that is needed, just ask!
I'm kind of new to Android in general (especially rooting, flashing roms, etc.) but not to technology, mobile or otherwise.
