| What
on earth is a MAC Address???????????? |
A
MAC address identifies a computer.
This has nothing
to do with Macintosh computers. Each MAC
Address
symbolizes one computer. If you have two MAC Addresses
already showing, but only computer, it is likely
that
you switched ethernet cards or modems. If so,
it is okay to delete the old MAC Address and
register
the new one.

| How
do I find my MAC Address (Windows)? |
Our
automated system should do this for you, but if doesn't:
| Windows
NT/2000/XP: |
- Click
Start.....click Programs.....click
Accessories.....click Command
Prompt.
- At
the prompt, type (exactly) ipconfig
/all (including the space) and press
the Enter or Return key.
- Half
way down the list you should see a section
labeled "Ethernet Adapter Local Area
Connection." A few rows below this
you will find "Physical Address......"
followed by a series of letters and numbers
like this: 00-X0-X0-00-0X-0X. Write that
number down (cannot copy and paste) and
type it in the white box after you close
the window. Be sure to type it exactly.
Case does not matter, but the hyphens are
essential!
