A MAC address is a physical hardware address assigned to each device that has the capability of connecting to a network. The internet is nothing more than a large network. The MAC address is something that is assigned in the chip on the device and is not something the user can change.

MAC stands for Media Access Control. The MAC address is a 48-bit address (usually expressed as 12 hexadecimal digits) that is assigned to the Socket WLAN Card during the manufacturing process and cannot be changed by the user. It is the unique identifier of the Socket WLAN Card that allows it to communicate at the “physical” layer level.

It is the unique hexadecimal serial number assigned to each Ethernet network device to identify it on the network. With Ethernet devices (as with most other network types), this address is permanently set at the time of manufacturer, though it can usually be changed through software.
