Title: How do you check the MAC address of an Ariadne card?
Post by: Flashlab on February 02, 2006, 09:52:15 PM

Soon my Amiga will be the only computer at home... For my Internet cable account I need my MAC address.

I know how to do this on my PC but on my Amiga???

Install Miami or Miami Deluxe, and in the interface menu, create an entry with the Ariadne device driver. You should then be able to query your device, and it will tell you the mac adress.

This will guide you :-)  (http://web.sonofon.dk/allan-muller/miami/miami.html)

If you're using AmiTCP/Genesis you can use "ifconfig -a" from the CLI to show the different interfaces.

If you don't already use Miami, the following will be easier: get SanaUtil from Aminet and run it from the shell:

sanautil device ariadne.device status

This should print out the MAC address along with some other stats. I'm guessing the driver name so change it if necessary.
