Determining WiFi MAC Address (Fig. 42)

If a printed WiFi MAC address for a PC cannot be found, it can be determined as follows from the MS-DOS prompt in the MS Windows running on that computer:

1.Start MS-DOS. In Windows 98, this is “Start” ... “Run” ,,, [type in] “command” ... “OK”. In Windows Me, 2k and XP, this is “Start” ... “Run” ... [type in] “cmd” ... OK.

2.List your installed interfaces, by typing “ipconfig /all” and pressing ENTER.

3.Find the MAC address associated with the interface description that matches your wireless card description. In this example, the phrase “802.11b PCMCIA” clearly identifies the WiFi card among the listed interfaces.
