Finding out MAC address / connecting via winbox

Tue May 18, 2021 6:18 pm

Hi! After some searching via Google I realized I need to ask someone a couple of very basic questions. Would really appreciate any help.

Context: home wifi network from hAP AC and a couple CAPs.

1. How can I find MAC address of my hAP AC without looking at the sticker on it? It's fixed in a box where it's not easy to take it out, so would be much easier for me too look that up somewhere in RouterOS.

2. Do I understand correctly that if something breaks down and I can't connect via 192.168.88.1 I will be able to connect via Winbox by knowing MAC address from my Question 1? Will I still be able to do this even if my wifi network is down?

The reason for these questions is that a few weeks ago I updated RouterOS to the latest version and after that I couldn't connect to it via 192.168.88.1 and so now I am a bit worried to do any updates :)
