Try
System.Management

        Dim mc As System.Management.ManagementClass
        Dim mo As ManagementObject
        mc = New ManagementClass("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
        Dim moc As ManagementObjectCollection = mc.GetInstances()
        For Each mo In moc
             If mo.Item("IPEnabled") = True Then
                MsgBox("MAC address " & mo.Item("MacAddress").ToString())
             End If
        Next
