I think you're referring to the MAC address then
start -> run
Type
cmd <enter>
at the command prompt type
ipconfig /all <enter>

Every wireless or Ethernet card you have will be shown with its IP & MAC
addrress.

If you are looking for the MAC ID of your router or cable modem (this is
what is exposed to the outside world) then you need to go into the setup
of the router or cable modem to see it. There is usually a 'stats'
page etc that shows that MAC address.

Hi Maurice,

Click Start, Run, type devmgmt.msc and click OK. Expand Network
adapters and double click on your NIC. Click the Details tab. Your
device ID is listed there.

If you want the MAC address, click Start, Run, type cmd and click OK.
type ipconfig /all and press Enter. The physical address will be listed.
