Many thanks for the swift response. However, there is no WAN MAC address on the box or on the device anywhere. I even used magnifying glass to find one 🙂.


The airport utility shows only three mac addresses. One for 2.4GHz, one for 5GHz and one fo the ethernet (LAN port) whereas there is another ethernet port in the device mentioned as WAN port and I am still not able to find the MAC address for the WAN ehternet port for Airport Express (2nd Generation).


Will appreciate a response to make th device work wiht my service provider as providing them the WAN mac address is a must. Had there been an option for cloning mac address, the issue would have not been there.


Many thanks again - in advance.

Oops! - sorry about that - my Extremes are at the office - what I told you was for older devices - but something that might help you is to download AU version 5.6 or 5.6.1 (whichever works for your operating system) - these versions give you more information - you can still use 6.1 as a diagram of your connected devices - you may have seen a reference to this the right of this post in a section titled "More Like This" - your post is at the end of the 3rd one from the top - How to find Airport Extreme Mac Address.......... - it refers to version 6.0 but the idea is the same - if it is not on your screen and/or my suggestion doesn't help then I give up 😟 - then I would suggest re-wording your question and posting again and maybe one of the gurus will answer.
