Answer 1

I know it's been awhile, but I needed this and found I could use OpenNETCF version of the code above with a tweak:

INetworkInterface[] nics = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
//for each j you can get the MAC 
PhysicalAddress address = nics[0].GetPhysicalAddress();
byte[] bytes = address.GetAddressBytes();
for(int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++) {
    // Display the physical address in hexadecimal. 
    Console.Write("{0}", bytes[i].ToString("X2"));
    // Insert a hyphen after each byte, unless we are at the end of the address. 
    if(i != bytes.Length - 1) {
        Console.Write("-");
    }
}
