Finding the MAC Address for the WiFi card on an Asus EEE
To find the MAC Address of the wireless card in an Asus EEE, hit Control-Alt-T -- this will bring up the Terminal application, a black rectangular window.
The cursor will flash after
/home/usr >
Type the following, and then hit a Return:
sudo ifconfig
The result will give you a lot of info, but you are looking for the line that starts “ath0” and mentions “Ethernet HWaddr” the MAC address is a set of 6 pairs of numbers/letters, separated by colons. For example: 00:15:AF:81:73:33
