Every network device or interface, such as your laptop’s Wi-Fi adapter, has a unique hardware ID called the MAC (or “media access control”) address. You can find the MAC address for your network card in Windows 10 in just a couple of steps.

There are a few reasons you might need to find your MAC address, also known as the physical address or hardware address. If you’re setting up your router, for example, you could use MAC address filtering to specify the devices that are allowed to connect to the network based on their MAC addresses. (However, this isn’t really a solid way to secure your network, since MAC addresses can be easily changed or spoofed.) Another reason is if your router lists connected devices by their MAC address and you want to figure out which device is which.

Luckily, you can find your MAC address easily in Windows with either the command prompt or in the settings details of your network adapter.
