The Media Access Control Address (MAC) is the only global identifier assigned by the manufacturer to each network hardware, such as a wireless network card or ethernet card.
On a Windows computer, you have quite a few ways to determine MAC addresses. Here, Next of Windows lists four such ways so that you can quickly find the MAC address when needed.
From the Control Panel
Open Control Panel , navigate to Network and Internet then select Network and Sharing Center . Click on Change adapter settings to open Network Connections , right click on the network card you want to check MAC address and select Status.
Click the Details button and you will see the MAC address of the device at Physical Address.
From the Command Prompt
Windows has quite a few lines of code that allow you to see the device's MAC address.
We will start looking for the MAC address with the most common command line:
Ipconfig / all
And then the command line:
Getmac / v
The / v list will list you a lot of information about the device, including the Connection Name and Network Adapter.
From Powershell
