The MAC address is a network device's unique 12-character physical address, containing the
hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only, and separated by colons (for example,
00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). It can usually be found on the bottom of the wireless card or network
interface device. If you do not have access to the physical label, you can display the MAC
address using the network configuration utilities of the computer. In WindowsXP, for example,
typing the
ipconfig/all
MAC address as Physical Address. You might also find the MAC addresses in the router's
Attached Devices screen.
