But if you have never had to locate the MAC address on your Samsung Galaxy ON5 before, then you may not know where to find it. MAC addresses can be found directly on the device itself, and rarely (if ever) change. This list is comprised of MAC addresses, which is a piece of information that is attached to a device that is able to access a network. Often this is done through something called MAC filtering, which blocks devices like phones or computers from accessing a network unless they are on an approved list of devices.
Occasionally a network administrator might need to know some information about your Android phone so that they can permit it to access a network.
