Finding the MAC Address for Nintendo Devices

Body

The MAC address functions as a hardware ID number. If you encounter difficulties connecting to the campus internet, we'll need that number to help you.

  • Note: You'll need to connect via an ethernet cable to a wired network jack. None of these consoles will work on our wireless network.

Nintendo Switch

  1. Look on the side of your USB-to-Ethernet adapter. The MAC address will be listed.
  2. Provide this MAC when requested. The Switch has to be connected to this adapter to work.
