Hi Seba, the MAC address printed on the back label is the LAN MAC address, and the WAN MAC address is equal to the LAN MAC address with the last part plus one. For example, the LAN MAC address is xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-71, then the WAN MAC address is xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-72. 

Note: It uses Hexadecimal. 

 

May it help.

@Swenson 

Hi, sorry.

It needs to be "plus one" and the previous reply needs to be updated.

For example:

50C7BF6E6287------>50C7BF6E6288

50C7BF6E628F------>50C7BF6E6290
