How do i find the MAC Address for my SPV m600

[Guest preloaded]

I need to add it to my wireless modem's allowed connections list.

Thanks in advance!

Start->Settings->Connections->Wireless Lan

It should be displayed in the box marked MAC

Turn on wifi in comm panel, then click menu and wifi settings. Click on the advanced tab and your wifi mac address will be shown.

One of the easiest ways is to turn off mac filtering on the router and then connect. Once connected you can note your mac address and add it to the allowed list and then turn filtering back on. Some routers allow you to simply import the mac addresses before you switch filtering on.

Thanks so far, but not quite there yet.

Inside my Wireless LAN settings i have these tabs along the bottom...

MAIN ADVANCED POWERMODE LEAP ENROLL

The only one with any mention of MAC is nthe ADVANCED tab, in this tab i have 3 non editable boxes...

STATUS MAC IP

All 3 are empty.

A MAC address is specific to each individual device, so somewhere this one's should be findable.

Any other thoughts?

Actually, i don't think wifi was enabled proper. Now it is and the 3 previously empty boxes have info in, including my MAC address. :)

Thanks again!

Sorry it's different on my Universal - I have 3 tabs- Main Settings and LEAP and it's displayed on the Main tab.

That's okay. We got the wifi working. :)

Got another question now!

So, my wifi is working, and ive entered all my network details (TCP/IP are not automatically set on our network so they need to be manually set)

All seems good - in my wifi settings my appropriate SSID etc. are all shown, and status is CONNECTED TO NETWORK, my assigned IP is displayed, i see the signal strength etc.

However, when i launch IE, it doesn't find any of the URLs i ented saying page cannot be found.

I am assuming that IE is not using the wifi connection to access the internet - how do i set it to do that?

Can you tell i just got a new phone?

Sorry, i'm normally good at this sort of thing, but this is foxing me repeatedly.

in wifi settings, click menu and then network card, then change to network card tab, select the sdio wireless crad and then try the different "connects to" options (eg internet or work).

Currently tried both Work and Internet but no joy still.

What are the differences between the 2?

The device can have different routes for the internet or for work networks. Orange devices are always a little funny due to their use of the work network settings for MMS. I added a new network connecttion called MY ISP and connect via that.

Go to Settings, Connections Tab, Connections and click advanced tab. There are the options for which settings internet access uses.
