							ADSL Gateway with Modem / Router / 4-Port Switch / Wireless-ReadyAppendix D: Finding the MAC
Address and IPAddress for Your
Ethernet AdapterThis section describes how to f ind the MAC address for your Ethernet adapter
to do either MAC Filtering for the Gateway and ISP.  You can also f ind the IP
address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter.  The IP address is used for f ilter-
ing.  Follow the steps in this appendix to f ind the MAC address or IP address
for your adapter in Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, and XP. 
For Windows 95, 98, and Me:
1. Click on Startand Run. In the Open f ield, enter winipcfg. Then press the
