| Guest | Re: MAC Address Open a command prompt and type ipconfig /all and press Enter. The MAC address will show there as the "physical address" of the wireless adapter. -- Richard G.

| Guest | Re: MAC Address I should explain more fully - ping the router (usually 192.168.1.1) then at the command prompt type arp -a. Richard and Joe are referring to the MAC of the adapter card - not the router. "AJR" <ajrjdr@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:Oz4rpMGEJHA.5732@xxxxxx

can go to the Command Prompt and enter IPconfig /all that will show you the MAC of the wireless card used by the computer. If you want to know the MAC address of the router, then it's on physical label on the outside of the router somewhere in the area of the serial number that's on a label. | ||||||||||||
