[android-developers] Re: Find MAC address

2009-10-23 Thread Wayne Wenthin
Anyone have a clue how to implement this?   This looks like a good way to
get a unique ID for any device that can talk to the net.

 How about

 I haven't tried it, and it's not documented, but it sure looks
 promising.

The following works fine on Wifi.

NetworkInfo networkInfo = connection.getActiveNetworkInfo();
WifiInfo wifiInfo = mWifiMgr.getConnectionInfo();
Log.d(TAG,MAC:+wifiInfo.getMacAddress());

For cellular I am not aware of a method over Java.

You might be able to use busybox for obtaining some additional network
information (busybox arp  for the ARP table)
