How to find MAC Address?

MAC is an acronym as a Media Access Control. The MAC address (also known as the physical address) is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the Internet from your computer (or the "host"), a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN. This is how the router knows where to send IP packets destined for your system.

The process is almost identical to find out MAC address in your systems. On a Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7 & Windows 8 machine you would use IPCONFIG. To see the MAC address, you need to add /ALL to the command.

Option 1.

• Click on START, and then click on RUN

• The RUN dialogue box will appear. Type “CMD” and press ENTER

• A DOS window will appear. This is also commonly called a Command Prompt

• Type “ipconfig /all” at the command prompt and hit ENTER. This window will now display the configuration of all of your network adapters. If you have multiple network adapters in your PC you'll see multiple addresses. Like Ethernet LAN/Wireless/Bluetooth. The MAC Address you're looking for will be listed under the heading Ethernet Adapter LAN Network Connection/Ethernet Adapter Wireless Network Connection

Option 2.

• Click on START, and then click on RUN

• The RUN dialogue box will appear. Type “CMD” and press ENTER

• A DOS window will appear. This is also commonly called a Command Prompt

Type “getmac” or “getmac/v” you will get all physical adapter address in your system
