Finding the MAC Address
The MAC Address is also known as a hardware or physical address for a device, usually a network
adapter. It consists of 6 pairs of numbers and letters. The pairs of numbers may be separated by “-”
or “:” (for example, 00-21-9B-1C-64-34 or 00:21:9B:1C:64:34).
You can view the MAC address of any device currently connected to your MiFi device in the Wi-Fi
Clients section of the Wi-Fi Status page. [See
Wi-Fi Clients
(page 35).

On a Windows PC, you can find the MAC address by running ipconfig /all from a command
prompt window (cmd). The MAC address is referred to as the Physical Address.

On a Mac, open System Preferences > Network . In the Show list, click AirPort , then click Advanced .
The MAC address is the Airport ID.

Ethernet adapter.

addresses from the trusted client list.
