WEP is a wireless security mode that is seen on wifi routers. The CM1000 is a modem only. No wifi or router here.
Is your Wifi 6 mesh system a Orbi AX system? What model Orbi RBK system do you have?

Every network interface has a MAC address, so you could find one (or
more) of them on any networked device.WEP is an obsolete wireless security scheme:

Is there some actual problem which you are trying to solve? Care to
share some useful information about it?If you're trying to find the MAC address which your (unspecified)
cable-TV ISP wants to know, then I'd expect to find it printed on the
label of your cable modem.Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Look for
"Label" and/or "MAC address"? Further reading might not hurt, either.
