Thanks.
I was hoping to be able to see ALL the interface MAC addresses. I can see the WAN and LAN and the 2.4GHz wifi network, but cannot see the addresses for the 5GHz and 6GHz networks.
My old Dlink 868L Wireless AC router just listed each network with associated addresses (*MAC and ethernet).
I think I've figured them out by using Inssider.

Attached devices?
In the Basic menu for your device.
If you see just an IP address and image, click the device.
Among other ways.

Checking mine, MAC addresses are not displayed in the WEB UI for the 5 and 6 Ghz radios. Maybe that something NG didn't intend or left out. Same is seen on my RAX120 as well.
I was able to see the 5Ghz MAC address in a wifi analyzer though.

In a web browser, append /hidden_info.htm to the IP address you use to log in to the router user interface.
As an example, http://192.168.1.1/hidden_info.htm The IP address of your router may be different.
This may not work for newer generation routers.
