How to change the Ethernet MAC address in Tronsmart Vega S89 series?

[GeekBuying_Rep]

Hi guys:

Here is the instruction for how to change the ethernet MAC address in Tronsmart Vega S89 series. It should work on tronsmart vega s89 standard, s89 elite, and s89-h.

So why should i release this?

Some customers get several tronsmart vega s89 and use them in one home, they report those vega s89 can’t use at the same time, when one can get ethernet, the other are not. so it is caused by the same mac address problem, In this case, you should use the following method, and change the MAC address. but if you only have one tronsmart vega s89 in your hand, so you can pass this instruction, here we go:

1 Download the tools here:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/42inkc6v7j3ujng/Tronsmart_Vega_S89_Flash_MAC.rar

password: geekbuying.com

2 Decompress the file you just downloaded, and copy the folder ” License” to C:\Program Files(X86)\Amlogic \USB_buring_tool

If you can’t find this folder, you should install the usb burning tool first, check the instruction here:

3 Open USB_buring tools, and load the Key_523.img from your download file, and you will see this:



Make sure you load the correct img file, and make sure you choose the ” overwrite key” and then you should connect your Trosmart device with your pc. same like what you did in flashing firmware, and click Start.

This tool will direct give you newest mac address to the tronsmart vega s89.

Any questions, feel free to contact us.

BUT I think before burning you don't have to forget to edit the 'mac*.ini' at the '\license' subfolder (e.g. for ethernet the 'mac_ether.ini')...
Also have a look at

Where do I get the drivers to have my vega recognized when connecting it to the pc via usb? I tried to moroobo suite but it doesn't seem to recognize anything. The device is simply recognized as nexus 10...

Any suggestions?

Hi,
You can download the drivers from here: http://www.moborobo.com/.
If it still don't recognize, please try to change the usb cable or computer USB port.

Been there done that.

Hi,

If it still don't recognize, please try to change the usb cable or computer USB port.

I tried downloading the moborobo suite, did not help, I removed and deleted all unknown (including hidden) usb entries to make sure that the drivers are reinstalled, used 3 different usb ports, and 2 different USB cables. Nothing changed.

If I don't press the reset button the device is recognized as a nexus 10, if I press it it is not recognized as windows cannot find the driver. Same happens with both the moroboro suite open and closed.

Isn't there a drivers suite for this device, without resorting to 3rd party moroboro suites?
