Authentication error after MAC spoof
I was testing spoofing my MAC address on my home network, I used the normal busybox commands, and verified they worked and did indeed change the mac. However, when I tried to connect to a secured network, it said "Authentication error occurred" like I got the password wrong, and it prompted me for the password again.
When I went back to my normal MAC, it worked fine. (And no MAC filtering is not on)
galaxy s3 sph-1700
(Sprint Variation)
Rooted with Samsung's ROM and Busybox
busybox ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
I also tried a random MAC address generated from a website.
