How to find iPhone MAC address

Posted on August 25, 2009 at 5:27 am

So I recently bought an iPhone and needed to know what the MAC address of the device so I could enter it into my wireless router MAC address filtering section. This way only devices I manually add to the list can connect to my wireless network.

So where can you find the MAC address for your iPhone? It’s actually pretty easy! Here’s how.

First, on your home screen, press on the Settings icon.

Next, you want to tap the General option under Settings.

After that, go ahead and tap the About option.

Finally, scroll down until you see Wi-FI Address and Bluetooth. Those are the MAC addresses for both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, in case you are using both.

That’s it! Now you can take the iPhone MAC address and plug that into any network program or device that may need it. Enjoy!
