Your hardware/adapter address is listed after "Physical Address." It is a series of letters and numbers in six nodes of two, separated by dashes (e.g., 00-B1-15-A6-D0-C5).Note: If you have a modem installed in your computer along with an ethernet adapter, you will see more than one adapter listed. The first four digits of your physical address should not be 44-45. Addresses beginning with 44-45 are typically modem addresses (also known as PPP adapters). 
The Physical Address - Write the hardware/adapter address down. You will need it to register your computer.
