Well yeah I did that but it didn't do anything.
Ran it for 15mins now and it's still like this
What might be wrong here?

Please connect with telnet and run:
Code:
wc -l /tmp/nzone.macs
ifconfig $(nvram get wl0_ifname)
nvram get cron_jobs

took a few tries but I managed to edit in the google spreadsheet ... (near end of page 177 in this thread, my post is the 2nd-last on that page I think. Link at end of post.)

PLEASE
Can someone copy/paste the spreadsheet link back onto the sticky on page one of this thread?

There's a line in startup now.
Nothing in cron jobs.

Just reboot router, and once more do exactly what is written in the guide at page10 of the topic.
If it wont work (no cron jobs, no startups cript on the WEB GUI) PM me, we'll try to investugate your issue!

Did exactly that and rebooted. Nothing.
Ran "/tmp/nzone start" next. Still nothing.

I'm having a problem and I'm at my wits end trying to figure it out. I set up my network, my 3ds connects to it im using the NZ network. It pops up to the on the 3ds that im in a nintendo hotspot. But the problem is when I use mac cycle it's changing my mac address for my "Wi-Fi" connection from my wifi dongle, but when it does it causes Microsoft Virtual.. etc (NZ@McD1) to disable itself. And then I pretty much have to manually remove the changed mac to turn it back on.

So... just to check if I'm on the right track or not: If was using win7 before the update, since it forces the WPA encryption method on hosted networks, I have no other choice but to use the NZ@McD1(at least for now)?. Otherwise, if the network isn't open, attwifi won't get any streetpasses, right?.

Well I've run the maccheck and it closes without giving me a result, so I screenshotted all it said before it closes. The second program BSOD my computer and I had to repair my bios because it wouldn't start. So normally I would take it as my hardware doesn't support changing macs? but what i find weird is that I can change the Mac address and it shows in the system the changed mac address and it will function in and of itself but the virtual windows program does not. So I'm still confused.

Yes, you may use only NZ@McD1 for now bacause of the following reasons:
1. after 9.0 firmware update streetpass are no longer works with password-protected attwifi nintendo zone ssid, while it works fine with NZ@McD1.
2. Nintendo spreads streetpass data for NZ@McD1 SSID (or maybe others wuropean too) with no MAC address lookup, so you can get a streetpass even without changing MAC - this won't work with attwifi (well, except streetpass weekends, which is the current weecked luckily)
3. Windows drivers prevents setting the real hardware MACs, so you were never able to actually reach the real attwifi nintendo zones (well except the very small number of wireless adapters which can actually set the real MAC but not in a straight way, whch is not used by any existing mac change method for now - I'm still testing), all the streetpasses you've got before was from the similar users or from the streetpass weekend streetpass sharing.

Most probably you have a drivers that make BSOD instead of normal MAC change. maccheck.cmd only cheks if the physical adapter driver can change mac, not taking into account the virtual hosted AP mode. Please try to download http://nintendozone.no-ip.org/maccheck3.cmd and run it from the command prompt without any parameters. PM me the result in case if sucesfully finishes. In case of BSOD your wireless adapter driver is not suitable for homepass, try to update it from the manufacturer site, if possible.

Have you updated 3DS fw 9.2.0 and SSB to 1.0.3 ? If yes and still no streetpass, it is possible that Nintendo do not spread SSB streetass data in europe. There ar no limitation of MAC change and security mode in case of the router script used, so I'm visiting all the available country MACs and SSIDs and getting SSB data every day.
