MAC address for access point/router

You can find the IP address of the router serving the iPad. Go to Settings/General/Wi-Fi and tap the arrow on the right side of the network to which you are connected for the connections information.

I don't believe settings will give you the MAC address of the router. I just checked and my iPad didn't list the routers MAC address. You may need to download an app like Network Pro to get that information.

If this is the app;
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/network-pro/id418818679?mt=8
It is compatible with iPhone, iTouch and iPad.

But I do not see mention of MAC numbers, I only see IP addresses in the screen grabs.

@Peter Rousak,

Network Pro is designed to work on the iPhone, but will also work on the iPad. Getting the router MAC address is not as straight forward as it should be. Start the app and tap the Lanscan icon. On the next screen tap the Scan Network bar. A listing of all devices on the network will be displayed. Tap the listing for the router. The next screen will display the information for the router, including the MAC address.

Note: Tapping on the Router Information/Internet Gateway bar on the initial LAN Scan screen will yield very little information and will not list the MAC address.

Since this is not a free app, you might want to check for a free app that will meet your needs.

@David.Austin.Allen,

That is the correct app. Although the screen shots and description do not show or mention MAC addresses, this information will be displayed.
