Hi Leonardo,
I think you're going the wrong way.
We have excellent support for WMI in .NET, so we should use it.
The following code shows the MAC-Adresses for all IP-Enabled devices:
it will be easy for you to adapt this code to return a string by using a
string-array, ArrayList, or whatever.
//add a reference to System.Management.dll
using System.Management;
ManagementClass mc = new ManagementClass(
"Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration");
ManagementObjectCollection moc = mc.GetInstances();
foreach (ManagementObject mo in moc)
{
if (Convert.ToBoolean(mo["IPEnabled"]) == true)
{
Debug.WriteLine(
"MAC-Address: " + mo["MacAddress"].ToString());
}
}
Cheers
