I am also having a hard time looking for the Mac Address? Any help from anyone?

This was a feature left out of Phone7 by Windows. The only way I can think of to obtain it is, if you're running Windows 7 and can make a virtual access point using Connectify to grab the Mac address once it connects to your computer

Yes it was confirmed also to me by HTC support that there is no way to look the mac address on the phone itself. The only way is to check the router's attached devices and check the mac address from there. I have to turn off the access control first of my Netgear router so that the HD7 will be able to connect to it.

Can't you then grab the Mac from the attached devices list and then apply it to your filter?

Good idea. Worked like a charm.

Here is an example of how to find it in a corporate environment. The following assumes you have access to the windows server that hands out DHCP addresses, assuming your wireless router does not. If your wireless router does, you should just be able to look it up in the DHCP client table of your device.
Anyhow...
I connect my HD7 to the wireless network, and the IP is supplied by the windows server. In the windows server, I go to DHCP and then Address Leases. I sort by expired date, and my device will be listed with the latest date, as it is the most recently connected device. I take note of the IP.
Then open a command prompt and type ARP -A
This will list the IP and MAC of all connected devices. Find your IP and there is your MAC.

The problem with my phone is that when I reboot it the mac address changes. My router works with a mac address filter. So I have to add a new mac address after each WP7 reboot.
Is there anyone with a solution?

If you unlock your device and install the Advance Configuration Tool the app shows you Mac address and other device details.

Solution: buy an HD7.

Are you sure? MAC address is strictly individual for each network adapter (ether or wlan).

I know that, but I think the wifi mac address used is a virtual one.
Yes I'm sure, the six last digits of my wifi mac address change, so I have to disable the mac address filter in my box, connect the phone, look in the box config which mac address is connected, add the new address to the authorized ones and turn on the address filter.
If you have a HD2 verify what I'm saying and you'll see I tell the truth.

cheap66, i have HD7 phone. My MAC Address is static. I use phone in my Uni. Administrators here use mac address filter too. I have no problems with that :|

He doesn't have an HD7.

In fact my phone is an HD2 and I think it's the reason why.

WM6 remote desktop - set display resolution

Hi there,
i have installed Finster869's WM6_RemoteDesktop.cab, which is available somewhere in the forum here.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to set some advanced options, which are normally shown in the regular remote desktop application for Windows Desktop OS's?
- Display: Remote Desktop Size
- Experience (Desktop background, Menu animation, themes)
Thanks
Chris
I'm curious how to set these too. 640x480 seems to get forced when I connect, making Outlook unusable.
Yeah, me too. There's a file default.rdp where you can amend the value of the resolution but somehow it doesnt take effect.
I end up using VNC Viewer though.
Hi, if there's just another Remote Desktop Client allowing to fit my needs - I'd use it.
What are the best Clients (also commercial)? Where can I get that VNC Viewer?

Got another question though - Is it possible to connect to a WM2003 server console through Finster869's RDP client?
Logmein
Another option is logmein free. They have a plugin for WM that works on the Kaiser I have from ATT. Allows me to set resloution, screen size, etc, and it's free.
im too looking for a way to get remote desktop mobile to set a custom resolution
because in small resolution on wm6 rdm it just hard for me to navigate stuff.
can someone find a hack for this please.. dear hackers out there thanks.
Need a little help here....i've 4 computers in the house and it's all running VNC Server Enterprise Edition 4.2.2. I've downloaded VNC Viewer from the link above and run it on my Kaiser but when try to connect, it says "Unable to connect to the specified server!". I'm not sure what to set as i'm just bad with these network stuff.
Assuming i want to connect to my computer A name "Desktop". I would assume i just input the name Desktop to "Server" in the program and put in the password right? Or am i just so lost
Hope somebody can kindly guide me on this. Appreciate it.
Anybody? Would love to get it working in my TyTN II & i have up to 4 computers to remote into
Are you trying to get into them from the Internet or are you on your WiFi network?
If you are on your WiFi you will need to know the IP address of the machine you are connecting to unless you have DNS setup internally. Not sure if WM6 by default will detect Windows names.
If you are coming from the Internet then you will need to port forward your to each of your machines.
Guys, as usual, Wiki is your best friend. Do search it before asking - I've answered almost all the questions asked in this thread in the Remote Desktop Access Bible at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Access your desktop PC from your Pocket PC!
To make it short, in the Comparison Chart ( http://www.winmobiletech.com/122006PPCPCRemoteControl/PPC2PCRemoteRoundupTable.htm ), it's the "Resolution, zoom, color" group that you must check out; most importantly, the first ("Remote desktop resolution?") and the fifth ("Remote desktop resolution settable?") row. The latter even shows how you can actively change the resolution from the client.

Well....i would want to get connected via Home WiFi first. All the 4 computers are connected to the same router. I've tried putting in the computer IP address (ie: 192.168.1.101::5900) but it still says not able to connect. the ::5900 seem to be added in on it's own.

1, welcome to XDA-Devs
2, you mean is the address, your name / password saved? All of them, as is also explained in the chart of the Bible (did you check it out?????), in the "Login: l/p credentials definable, used (with RDP clients) and remembered? – an advantage particularly with RDP-based clients" and the "Server IP’s remembered?".
Please DO spend some time reading these Bibles / charts before asking questions!
no, sorry for the bad english. I mean, what about the security of the connection. Via PC i use a ipsec connection. When I use a normal connection it is possible to trace my login data and to get access to my server for other people.

RDP is a safe protocol - no cleartext passwords are communicated. BTW, you can also run RDP over a VPN connection to maximize safety.

Does anyone know how to use Remote Desktop?

I downloaded the cab, but i dont know where to go from there. I am just a normal person with a laptop and a tilt.
Do you have a domain set up for your laptop? Probably not so there is no way for you to use the Remote desktop app there are other apps out there but most cost money
You dont need a domain setup to use it. You can just leave that blank. You need to know your IP address, and you need to have a password setup on your machine for remote desktop to work, you can not connect if you do not have a password.
If you are behind a router, you need to forward the correct ports for it to be able to connect to your pc as well.
After its setup, you just need to connect via ip address, through a connection that is not behind a nat, if you are using att, you need to have access to the isp.cingular apn, wap.cingular does not work.
This is a pretty loaded question. Along with the information from fastblack, you'll also need to ensure your version of Windows supports Remote Desktop and that remote connections are allowed. Also depending on the environment there may be other security settings on the machine you are trying to connect to that will need to be considered.
In short, if you don't know how to do this already, it might not be the right solution for you. It can get pretty complicated in some cases.
I have vista premium. Say was to use a router for my laptop and my tilt for wifi. How do i create a password for my computer?

i can understand somewhat if someone comes here asking how to do something on a phone that is in the manual.......but now u're asking something about setting a password on your computer.......i dont use vista, so i can exactly tell you where to look but, i hear that vista comes with this brand new thing.......its called the help files, you should check it out
why not just use logmein (www.logmein.com) easier, faster, better
from logmein use hamachi mobile on the laptop and hamachi regular on the desktop to bypass firewalls....
Oh never mind, you would still need to know how to setup basic network security etc.
If this is the route you want to go pm me and I can send you some links to get started. It's not really that complicated but depending on the details there are alot of variables. Would post the links but would have to start googliny myself
But if you google you find allthe answers and any guide telling you how to RD from a normal computer to another - just treat the handhelp RD software the same.
This is how you do it in XP, Vista setup has to be very similar I bet:
Set the password for the windows user account you log on to on your PC. This can be done in Control Panel - in the User Accounts application.
Next you have to activate the remote desktop function. This can be found by right-clicking My Computer, go to properties, and then to the "Remote" tab. Check the "Allow Users to connect remotely to this computer" box.
Now check your local ip. this can be done by selecting the "Run" button in start, then type cmd and hit enter. In the that window type: "ipconfig" (without the quotes) and a line will read IP address . . . . . 192.xxx.xxx.xxx or something of the sort.
Thats the IP address you connect to, and when the prompt for username and password comes out, type in your Windows User Account respective username and password.
Good luck =)

this is correct assuming you are:
A. attached to wireless
B. on the same network as the PC you are trying to control
if you want to control your home PC externally, there would be 1 additional step, and two optional but recommended steps.
To access remotely (from anywhere in the world), you would have to go into your router configuration and map port 3389 to the ip address of your vista machine. now for the two optional steps that would make your life easier...
1. set a static ip on your vista machine that is out of dhcp range.
2. use a service like dyndns.org and either set this up in your router if compatible, or install the free update client on your PC.
with this setup you should be able to access all your pc resources from anywhere in the world, not only on your PPC device, but any windows PC with a Remote Desktop client.
security note - set a strong password on your vista machine. port 3389 is well documented and scanned for by hackers. if the option is there, while your in your router turn off ping reply.
if all this is foreign to you, find me @ www.insiteitsolutions.com and i will take care of you.
Cab??
I can't find the remote desktop cab anymore. I tried searching the forums. I've looked at Dutty's site and all the cabs. Can someone point me to it please. I think maybe I am just not seeing it for some reason. I'm sure it's there, I've downloaded it before. Thanks!

How to spoof captivate MAC address?

Does anyone know how to spoof the MAC address on a Captivate. I can't seem to find the nvram.txt file anywhere, or if there is another way I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Why would you?
Cuz im testing my network at home, and I want to see if it shows my new MAC address.
Only thing I can think of is enabling mock locations in development, but i'm not sure if that involves MAC addresses.

Since neither me nor anyone else knows about the network configuration of the network you want to connect to, I don't think we're able to tell you what you should put into the various fields.
The one to work out, or know, that stuff is YOU.
If You're using Windows - run cmd.exe and type there ipconfig/all. And this will answer Your question

I can help you. You need to connect your computer or laptop first with the wifi network. Then open the wifi adapter property from PC(pic 1). Click on Details button as in picture 1. The details window copy the details marked in yellow rectangle(pic 2).
Just follow all values exactly same except he IPv4 address. Use the IPv4 address in your phones IP address box but change the last digits after dot.
If you are getting confused please send me the screen shots of your windows as mine.

dipusen, you forgot to mention that this will most likely work without troubles in a home network but shouldn't be tried in a School (WiFi) network, or any other public WiFi, as chances are (by incrementing the last octet of the IP) that this could trigger a duplicate IP in the network if the $currentIP 1++ is already assigned to another device by DHCP.

How can I change my Mac Address? (REDMI 8)

Everytime I used any mac address changer it just revert back to normal/can't change. Does someone know to change it?
1) I don't know if there is a way, you can Google it
2) why would you even want that??

MAC address = Media Access Control address
Kind of physical address of your device.
This unique address is given by the manufacturer who got a special address range/area from the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).
So it is something a user should not be able to change.
Maybe you mixed it up with a different type of address
