    its called MAC Address. its composed a 48 bit hexadecimals. yes, you can find it using by looking on the bottom of the router, usually its there.

    get the ip address of the default gateway (usually its 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1) the ping the ip address of the default gateway. after successfully pinging the gateway(which should be the router), type in arp -a. you should be able to get your routers mac address.
