And I know nearly every rk3188 also have the same problem (with the exception they use a USB to Ethernet chip e.g. from ASIXS, but that are not so much boxes, most use the Ethernet at rk3188 with PHY... )RK3288 Devices

I bet this may get fixed long term. I tried to see what the tool is changing in the ROM but cannot figure it out yet.
Bob"Pzebacz im, bo nie wiedzą, co czynią"
"Прости им, они не ведают, что творят"
"Perdona loro perché non sanno quello che fanno"
"Vergib ihnen, denn sie wissen nicht, was sie tun"
"Vergeef hen want ze weten niet wat ze doen"
"Pardonne-leur car ils ne savent pas ce qu'ils font"
"Perdónalos porque no saben que lo que hacen"
"Oprosti im, jer ne znaju što čine"
"Forgive them as they know not what they do"

OK , I'm not up to speed with MAC addresses etc. How does this help with apps not "seeing" an Ethernet connection? I've changed the MAC address using Omans tool he posted but the BBC apps still ask for a WiFi connection. Is there something specific that has to be done?

Official BBC iPlayer application requires WiFi or mobile data connection. It does not support cable LAN connection!
In order to use LAN connection you may try to install XBMC addon iPlayer:
You may mark this thread as solved, because it's not a problem of Android OS or Tronsmart.

The BBC iPlayer app uses standard Android app permissions that are defined by the Google Android platform. The permissions the BBC iPlayer Android app asks to use are:
Read phone status and identity – allows us to securely link downloads to your device, so they cannot be copied to another.
Modify or delete the contents of your USB storage – allows the app to save images, metadata and downloads.
Full network access- allows the app to access the internet.
View network connections - Allows the app to access details about network connectivity i.e. whether the device is on Wi-Fi or 3G/4G
So, it is a standard permissions issue on android, any app that makes this check will not work over ethernet.

Originally posted by no_spam_for_me View PostIt will never help at any logical connection (IP, TCP, UDP, HTTP ... are logical), it only help at physical connection e.g. you need a unique physical address at same LAN/WiFi net and e.g. to handle DHCP, because the router use this unique physical address to assign a logical address (the IP at this net)... But will never help at the logical layer...
