Imports System.Net.NetworkInformation

Dim networkcard() As NetworkInterface =
NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()
Public netCard As String =
networkcard(0).GetPhysicalAddress.ToString

or use for ... next to inerate throw all network cards

It works but how do we do to retrieve the MAC address of each network interface installed on a single host
