The following guide provides details on how to find the MAC Address of your Windows 7 PC or Laptop. This will assist you in identifying the devices registered on your account in the Q2 portal.

To locate your MAC address by this method you must already be connected to a network.

Connect to your building's assigned WiFi SSID. See reception if you do not know your building's WiFi SSID. Ethernet devices should be connected directly to a wall port.
