Setting up MAC Address in Android Emulator

Question

How do I setup a MAC address for the Android Emulator?

Currently, it is shown as "Unavailable" under Settings -> About Phone -> Status

Answer 1

By default, the Android emulator runs emulating a Ethernet connection, but not a wifi connection. Since the Wifi is not enabled it dosen't have mac address.It's the same as when you try getting a hold of the bluetooth stuff on the emulator. There is no MacAdress and should return null. Try on a real device and it will work

Answer 3

It does appear to be possible to retrieve the MAC address if that's what you mean by "setup". See this answer

Utils.getMACAddress("eth0");
