A Media Access Control (MAC) Address, also called the physical address, is a unique identifier associated with your device’s network adapter or network interface controller (NIC).

 

On a device with both wired (Ethernet) and wireless (Wi-Fi) connectivity capabilities, there will be one MAC Address for the wired (Ethernet) connection and another MAC Address for the wireless (Wi-Fi) connection. If a device only has wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-Fi) connectivity capabilities, then there will only be one MAC Address.


 

How to locate Physical Address (MAC Address):

  1. On your Apple device, go to the device Settings by clicking on the Settings icon.
    Settings app

  2. In Settings, click on the General tab.
