What is my MAC address?

A MAC address is a series of letters and numbers unique to every internet capable device. This address allows a network to recognize a device. Essentially, it is your device's name and address when connecting to networks.

MAC addresses may be placed in a different spot by each device manufacturer. For the best assistance, please refer to your device's user manual or contact the manufacturer.
