Auto login through a mac address?

[Grenlen]

I'm usually logging into EWA with my laptop on the road.. and since my ip address changes everywhere but my mac address shouldn't.

Is there a way to set up the autologin "IP range" to accept mac address as well?

and from a a post I read back on a 2006 thread.
on the subject of guests account log in. could it be viable to have "Guest account" = Guest.aspx and that page only has access/links to the mange.aspx (oir guestmanage.aspx) program without coding to allow for a delete button????

Thanks Gren

AFAIK the MAC address isn't propagated past the first router out to the internet.

Yep - I'll go with that. As far as I remember, in almost all cases (possibly all?) the MAC address isn't even passed across routers within the same building of a corporate network.

Yes, correction:- "AFAIK the MAC address isn't propagated past the first router"
