All of the MAC addresses displayed by the router under DEVICE INFO should be
for interfaces on the router only. I have a DI-774, but the admin screens
should be pretty much the same. The WAN MAC is the Ethernet MAC seen by your
cable or DSL modem, the LAN MAC is the Ethernet MAC seen by any host
connected to one of the Ethernet ports. You should also have a MAC address
for the wireless AP in your router.
In order to see MAC addresses for connected wireless devices, I have to
select WIRELESS on the STATUS tab. For some reason I don't understand,
connected Ethernet client MAC addresses don't seem to be available on the
STATUS tab. To see these, I goto the HOME tab and select DHCP. Both Ethernet
and wireless client MAC addresses show up at the bottom of the screen under
the static or dynamic DHCP client list, however you have it configured. Or
you can click the checkmark on the DHCP client box to see a concise list of
the MAC addresses for clients.
