Finding MAC Address

Question

May seem like dumb question but I cannot figure out how to get the MAC address. 2 MAC Addresses on Extender label seem to be for connecting other devices to the extender. I need the mac to connect extender via WiFi to my FIOS G-1100 Verizon gateway.

Thanks

Is there any helpful information in the user manual for this?&nbsp;Does the setup wizard not help you connect the extender to the main host routers wifi?&nbsp;

Yes, but not to find MAC

Does the setup wizard not help you connect the extender to the main host routers wifi?

Yes, I am connected.

Here's my problem. I have about 50 (many no name) devices conected to gateway, including the extender. I simply want to ID the Extender and change its name to "Extender." I am trying to ID all devices to make sure no one unauthorized is "borrowing" my network. It would be easier if the G-1100 has some way to sort or reorder the attached devices.

You can look at the sticker on the extender and see the MAC address here. Then look for this address on the main host routers connected clients table...

There are three MAC addresses: One of for the extender wired Ethernet, one for the 2.4 GHz and one for the 5 GHz radio. Unless I'm wrong, the two WiFi radio MAC are shwon on the top of the Connected Devices in the Genie Web UI.
