You can do this with WMI.

Add the System.Management namespace to your code and then use
ManagementClass("Win32_NetworkAdapter") with the GetInstances Method to get
all Instances of Networkcards on your system.

When you identified the right instance you can use the properties
collection to retrieve values like MAC Address.

Try this:

using System;
using System.Management;
public class Wmis {
public static void Main() {
using (ManagementObject netw = new ManagementObject("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguratio n.Index=1"))
{
string s = netw["MACAddress"].ToString();
Console.WriteLine( "MAC Address\t‘{0}’", s);
}
}
}
//Index = 1 is the adaptors configuration
