E71 Mac Address For Wireless Networks

Posted by Mike Macias


This probably should have went in the last post I made today about E71 and a Mac. When your trying to connect to a wireless network thats usings Mac security, there is a good chance your going to need your E71's Mac address to access the wireless network.

To find your Mac address you need to type in the following code from your E71's homescreen...

*#62209526#

From there you will see your code that you must write down and punch in to the field that is asking for it. After this you should have access to the network.

If anyone else has any tips about finding the E71 and a Mac computer please leave us a comment below and share your knowledge.

    An easier to remember version is to use the letters on the kays and type:

    *#MAC WLAN#

    where there is a space (key '0') between MAC and WLAN.

    My tip above would be great if the E71 had a conventional ITU-T which it doesn't. So I'll just shut up now... :-(

  9. I'm using an E71 and tried out *#62209526# to find what my MAC address is but it did not work. Were are you meant to enter this?

    Btw, MAC address is your device ethernet id and nothing to do with Macintosh computers...

  12. Hi, Where do you enter the MAC address? I can't figure it out? Does it have to be entered in the WPA2 pre-share key?

  15. Could any1 get the e71 wifi working with linksys router? i have linksys wrt54g and cannot get it to connect at all
    ReplyDelete
  16. My wifi works great works great with wrt54g: I have it set up with wpa2 personal key encryption with no probs :-)

    Also - regarding mac in general: found the Nokia Multimedia Transfer app quite usefull. Now using the recode functions in the program, I get all my media (music, movies and podcast) transfered automatically to my nokia each time i connect it to my mac :-)

    Nice that Apple / Nokia make some usefull programs for mac as well; now I'm just waiting for the Software Update app for everything to be perfect ;-)

  24. check your router, coz the router might have a filtering which only specified MAC address can connect to the wifi... some router implements those mac specific filter instead of password ... hope that helps..
