Some customers, and here I add myself too, have expressed the need for knowing the Mac address of the devices we got connected in our home networks. I can’t get not the Mac address neither the ip address of a Sonoff, why? Thanks in advance ---

Why it is impossible to see the IP address not even the oldest eWeLink employees know. The MAC, on the other hand, can be seen without a problem. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/5/5aa7872b9b454509e966cd54194085fe26692c59.png) ---

Sure! Thanks for that tip too. Regardless of glasses (that I don’t need anyway), 8 hrs ago the MAC address field wasn’t there, that’s why I took the screenshot without even looking at it. App update? I don’t care anyway, glad to see I can get the address ---

I also didn’t see the MAC address. I then switched to Light Mode and the MAC address appeared. Then I switched back to Dark Mode and it was still there :-/ ---

It’s there in both cases. It’s just that the developers forgot to consider changing the font colour to white. ---

Uhmm… no, I don’t think it was there. I would have noticed the separator lines above and below with nothing in between. ---

Mark the section, copy and paste to a Notepad instance. ---

Suddenly, I found that the web version displays the Mac address of most of my gadgets. ---

Unfortunately, I can’t do that now that the MAC Address does appear in Dark Mode after switching to Light Mode and back again. Furthermore, the font color for the actual MAC address in Dark Mode isn’t white, it’s a sort of light gray, so I’m sure I would have seen it. The label for the MAC Address is white. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/e/e292aafbd917900f799cf48bd80033cd5275b050.png) Any way, the MAC address is now sorted for me except for my door switches ( I don’t know if they even have mac addresses although somehow they must be locate-able on my router.)
